I would refer anyone I know or that asks about a good eye doctor to Tarr Family Eyecare! I had an absolute wonderful 1st visit February 2026 here in Newport, Tennessee 37821. I was made felt welcomed from the time I walked in all the way through to picking out my glasses. They sanitized everything right before I used any of the exam machines. Every staff member was very professional and very friendly also.They have a very big selection of frames at reasonable prices. So if you need an exam don't give it a 2nd thought and go give Tarr Family Eyecare a try. I promise you won't regret it! I saw Katelyn Yates, OD and was absolutely a blessing to me 😊

I am a new patient at Tarr Family Eyecare. The office is very pleasant and the employees are very friendly! They brought me back early. Dr. Yates was very thorough and reviewed my previous records from Florida. She answered all of my questions. I would highly recommend this off for any eyecare. Thank you to the Tarr Family Eyecare group for your services! Katrina Szilagyi.
I recently had my first visit to Tarr Family Eyecare and it was great! Everyone at the front desk answered all my insurance questions and were patient with me. There was a good selection of frames and the lady who helped me through that process was very kind, even when I picked 10 different styles and spent an hour choosing which ones I liked. The optometrist I saw (Dr. Tarr) explained everything very well, and was kind. I would recommend to anyone in the area!
Top tier service! They have reasonable plan for anyone without vision insurance. And it was a very thorough exam! Dr. Tarr also explained everything in terms I could understand and was very kind and informative! The ladies in the frames/checkout area as well as check in area were friendly and helpful! Plus, they gave an after hours number for emergencies which gives me peace of mind. Very impressed!!
The whole team is top-notch!! April and Rosie went above and beyond I cannot praise them enough. Dr Tarr was by far the best eye doctor I have seen in 20yrs. He was very helpful answered my questions and made me feel heard. I am blessed to have found Tarr Family Eyecare, thank you all!!
