Dr. Schwartz saved my vision and I will forever be grateful to him and the rock stars at Albertville Eye care, the epitome of excellent eye care! I can't say enough good things about them. He is so incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, great with people of all ages, and creates a relaxing atmosphere for his patients. Shannon and Patty always welcome you with genuine smiles, are friendly, eager to help, and are stylist extraordinaires when it comes to optometry. During my annual eye exam in November 2016, Dr. Schwartz caught a microscopic abnormality in my left optic nerve--before he had even dilated my eyes. After months of tests and ruling out other things at the U of M, the doctors determined that it's an optic nerve sheath meningioma (tumor). Thanks to Dr. Schwartz's expertise, it was caught before any vision loss (the doctors were shocked as it's rarely detected before the patient has symptoms). After 29 radiation treatments, the tumor shrank a little and it only caused minor vision loss. I just had follow-up visits with Dr. Schwartz and my neuro-ophthalmologist at the U and my vision has stayed the same and the tumor has not grown. I am blessed! This would not have been possible without Dr. Schwartz and I will never be able to thank him enough for blessing our family with not only top-notch, hometown care, but for saving my eyesight (and more). Our whole family recommends Dr. Schwartz and the Albertville Eye Care Team! Our thanks to all of them. 🙂
