We are always striving to offer the latest in technology in medical equipment to diagnose and treat your eye health, with contact lenses, and with our eyewear.

I just retired form teaching and being a Director of a preschool for 20 years. In my younger days I was an Administration Assistant at Fort Knox, KY working on a 2-star general’s staff. This is where I met my husband Jim. Once married, we were stationed in Gelnhausen, Germany where our son Bobby was born, Fort Riley, KN where our daughter Jessy was born and Fort Hood, TX. My husband retired from the U.S. Army in 1998 and we have lived in McCordsville, ever since.

I started working at Price Eye Care June, 2019. I spent 15 years teaching at a local preschool. I loved being with the kiddos but felt it was time to change things up. I am married to Ron for 33 years. We have 3 boys, 2 1/2 daughters-in-law (youngest son is engaged😁), and 1 grandson. Family is the best thing God has blessed me with!
