Advanced Vision Care’s
Keys to Eye Health
F
or over four decades, Advanced Vision Care has cared
for the visual and ocular health of patients who live
and work in the South Hills. Founded by Dr. Lonny
Harrison, ownership of the practice recently passed to
longtime associate Dr. Anthony Pinter and his wife, Dr. Mindy
McKee. Drs. Pinter and McKee purchased Advanced Vision Care
with a goal of ensuring that the practice continued living up to
its name, and its reputation within the South Hills. In keeping
with that strategic vision, the practice recently upgraded its
diagnostic equipment, including one of the newest models of
Optomap.
The Optomap provides a high-resolution image of the retina
(interior of the eye) with a 200° field of view, versus the 45° field
offered by traditional cameras. This instrument allows for better
diagnosis, monitoring and treatment of diseases such as diabetic
retinopathy, glaucoma, macular degeneration and various retinal
conditions.
In addition to maximizing technological
capabilities, actually listening to and
fostering discussion with patients enables
the Advanced Vision Care team to provide
more effective care and add value to the
patient experience.
“We take the time to listen to our
patients,” explained Dr. Pinter. “Many eye
conditions—or medical problems for that matter—can be
diagnosed through a good case history. Dr. Harrison always
stressed that technology is important and useful, but people
make the difference. We try to honor his legacy by providing the
best possible eye care to every patient.”
Same-day care is always provided for ocular urgencies and
emergencies, with most medical insurance plans accepted.
The six doctors at Advanced Vision Care treat patients in
all stages of life, beginning in infancy. Most recent to join the
optometric team is Dr. Robert Hartsock, bringing with him nearly
30 years of practice experience in the South Hills. Utilizing their
vast experience, the doctors are able to offer a wide variety of
contact lens fitting options, including hard-to-fit and specialty
lenses. Additionally, there are three certified opticians on staff
in the newly renovated Optical Department, which carries over
1,200 frames. The great selection of frames combined with a
wide variety of lens options ensures something for everyone
across all price points.
