Traveling to BRIGHT Eyes
At BRIGHT Eyes in Boone, North Carolina, we proudly welcome patients who travel from across the High Country, greater Carolinas, Southeastern United States, and beyond.
Our patients often tell us they’ve “tried everything” before finding lasting relief here. BRIGHT Eyes offers innovative, boutique-level treatments not typically found in traditional eye care settings.

✔️ Comprehensive, one-on-one care with extended visits and personalized treatment plans

How we make it easy
We understand that traveling for medical care requires planning, so we offer concierge-style coordination for our out-of-town patients:
Pre-visit virtual consultations to review your history and create a preliminary plan
Same-day diagnostics and treatment options whenever possible
Multi-appointment scheduling (e.g., IPL + red light therapy + follow-up) to minimize travel days
Personalized aftercare and follow-up support via phone or telehealth
Our goal is to make your visit feel seamless, restorative, and absolutely worth the trip.
