Kavanaugh Eye Care History
Doctor and Kerry Guice founded Kavanaugh Eye Care in March of 2009 after careful planning and consideration of the availability of eye care in central Arkansas. Their goal was, and remains, to offer exceptional customer service, top-quality products, and an overall unique eye care experience. They wanted to break away from the norm and truly offer a new kind of eye care. Dr. Guice insisted that only new, advanced technologies be utilized in the delivery of eye care. With her customer service experience in fine dining restaurants, Kerry brought the necessary emphasis on service and quality. Together, Dr. Guice and Kerry hand pick each and every frame in the optical to offer both quality and style, not simply name brand recognition. The Heights district of Little Rock has a made a wonderful home for Kavanaugh Eye Care. The area offers superb dining, boutique shopping and an array of professional services. Join us every third Thursday of the month for Happy Hour in the Heights.
