The KEC Advantage

Kensington Eye Center has been providing patients in the Washington DC Metro area with the highest quality of eye care for over thirty years. Read why patients refer their loved ones to our doctors.

Superior Service

At KEC, you are our number one priority. Our doctors are committed to listening to all of your concerns and to fully understanding your medical needs and history. We feel that patients receive better eye care when doctors spend more time getting to know their patients, not less. KEC doctors take pride in clearly communicating medical advice so that you always understand and feel comfortable with your treatment. We also appreciate that your time is important. That’s why we strive to ensure your appointment will be on time, every time. KEC is accepting new patients and appointments are available in as little as 1-2 business days after scheduling.

Board Certified Cornea Specialists

Our physicians are certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology, which means they have achieved the highest professional standards of training, experience, and knowledge of eye care treatment and surgical procedures.

Board Certified Optometrist

Our optometrist specializes in comprehensive eye care, the medical management of eye disease, and routine and advanced contact lens fittings, including monovision, toric, bifocal, and rigid gas permeable lenses. She also specializes in therapeutic contact lenses, including keratoconic and post-corneal transplant fittings and is experienced in pre- and post-operative ophthalmic surgical care, including laser refractive procedures.
