Eye Care for Smithfield Families
Patients across Northwest Rhode Island come to Pugliese Family Eye Care for more than routine checkups. We help children manage myopia, give dry eye patients access to in-office treatment options, and use comprehensive exams to catch problems before they become harder to manage.
From infants to seniors, our comprehensive eye exams support clear vision, early detection, and ongoing care using advanced testing technology.
We use MiSight contact lenses and Stellest lenses to help slow myopia progression and protect your child’s long-term vision as they grow.
Our eye clinic offers advanced dry eye care, including Eterna radiofrequency, gland expression, punctal plugs, and other targeted treatments for lasting relief.
