History
Established in 2005.
Meriden Eye Care has deep roots in the Central Connecticut community. Our primary Meriden office is located inside a beautifully restored Victorian building on Broad Street that has been a recognizable landmark in the area since 1875. Over the decades, this location has evolved from a historic community cornerstone into a modern, state-of-the-art eye care facility.
While honoring our rich local heritage, we continuously invest in cutting-edge diagnostic technology and advanced treatments—such as our dedicated Dry Eye Center and on-site optical lab. To better serve our growing community, we expanded our reach with an additional office location at 425 Kings Highway East in Fairfield, CT. Today, patients throughout Meriden and Fairfield County continue to trust our practice for exceptional, generational eye health solutions that bridge historic charm with modern medical excellence.
