Your Vistarr Optometrist
Lorna Simmerman, OD

A Family History of Optometry
“Being an optometrist is in my blood. I am the third generation in my family to select
this profession. I enjoy my work because it lets me be a part of the medical world and touch the lives of the people I serve. I have been in practice for over 10 years in which the past 8 years have been working with ophthalmologists.”

Strong Interpersonal Skills
“I am a caring and patient person who enjoys helping people see the world the best they can. Patient education is important to me — I want the patients to understand their problems and how I am going to improve them. These traits, along with my
excellent training, help make me a good optometrist with whom people of all ages feel comfortable.”

Dedicated to Excellence and Professionalism
“I feel strongly that every person I care for deserves a comprehensive eye exam, so I
devote ample time to each patient. I try to stay on schedule, but if I get behind due to
an emergency, I still give each patient the time it takes to solve their problem. They deserve no less.”
