Lakefront Eyecare

Lakefront Eyecare is a locally owned, independent optometry practice led by Dr. Melissa Dugan, OD, who has over 13 years of experience. The office offers comprehensive eye exams, contact lens fittings, customized eyewear prescriptions, pediatric and medical eye exams, and management of conditions such as glaucoma, diabetic eye disease and macular degeneration. Dr. Dugan is a dry eye specialist and offers OptiLight IPL treatment for dry eye tied to meibomian gland dysfunction.

The practice carries independently made eyewear brands and is accepting new patients. Urgent eye care visits are available for patients who need same-day attention. Appointments can be requested online or by phone. The office is on West Robert E. Lee Boulevard in New Orleans, and its weekday hours run until mid-afternoon, with a shorter Friday schedule and closed weekends.
