In her words

Make eye care relatable, thorough, and fun.

Dr. Lewis graduated with her optometric degree in 2017 and has worked in many cities across Northwest Indiana. She really tries to help patients understand the purpose and design of the glasses they are being put in to help them in their specific day to day lives. Sometimes the root of their vision issues is not refractive in nature at all and they have to dig a little deeper to uncover what is really going on. She loves going on that journey with patients and seeing their joy when they are happy with the glasses she prescribed.

She truly tries to treat each patient like they are a member of her family. Dr. Lewis does not like using technical jargon that is confusing to understand; she likes to try to make eyecare relatable and fun for the patients. Patients often tell Dr. Lewis that it was the most thorough eye exam they have ever had or that they learned something new about their eyes—compliments she values deeply.

Dr. Lewis has young children at home, so her current hobbies are fingerpainting and stacking blocks! She is just soaking in all the family time she can get in this chapter of her life and enjoys going to festivals or doing small weekend trips with her family!
