About

True North Eyecare Optometry in Santee's Town Center district delivers comprehensive eye examinations from inside the Costco at 101 Town Center Parkway. Founded in 2021, the veteran-owned practice screens for glaucoma, macular degeneration, and more than 250 systemic diseases detectable through ocular examination, referring patients who need multi-specialty evaluation to the integrated medical network at Sharp Rees-Stealy Santee on Cuyamaca Street. The founding optometrist speaks English and Spanish, trained across multiple clinical settings, and provided vision care to 50 remote Alaska villages in 2021 and 2022 before establishing the Santee practice. Costco membership is not required for clinical services, and completed eyeglass and contact lens prescriptions can be filled at Costco Optical or any retailer of the patient's choice, with cervicogenic visual disturbance referrals received from musculoskeletal providers including Awesome Family Chiropractic on Cuyamaca Street. Contact lens evaluations cover single-vision, toric, and monovision prescriptions for astigmatism and presbyopia, with fitting fees structured under a flat-rate schedule regardless of lens complexity.
