Valley Eyecare celebrates one year

A year ago, Dr. Somer Lyons opened the doors of an optometry practice in Minden, which now serves more than a thousand patients.

"A lot has changed in the past year, but our commitment to providing quality care has not. I'm proud that we have been successful in achieving our mission: to help eliminate preventable vision loss and blindness," said Lyons. "As we celebrate our anniversary, I'd like to thank the Carson Valley for your support in my first year."

The public is invited to join Valley Eyecare & Eyewear Gallery's first anniversary open house on Jan. 22 from 4 to 8 p.m. There will be office tours, refreshments and door prizes. In addition, those attending will also receive a $20 savings certificate.

Valley Eyecare & Eyewear Gallery is located at 1644 Highway 395, unit B-1, in Minden. Call 783-1111 for more information.
