Eyecare Center in Tomahawk, WI
Vision With Precision
At Tomahawk Eyecare, we believe clear vision is one of life’s greatest gifts, and protecting it starts with compassionate, expert care. That’s why, for over 25 years, we’ve proudly served families throughout Tomahawk, WI, and the surrounding Northwoods communities with complete, personalized eye care services. From routine eye exams and contact lens fittings to advanced treatment for glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetes, and dry eye, our mission is simple: to provide vision with precision for every patient who walks through our doors. With this in mind, our experienced optometrists and friendly staff deliver top-quality care, fast turnaround times, and customized vision solutions for every lifestyle.
Comprehensive Eye Exams for the Whole Family
Healthy vision starts with regular eye exams. At Tomahawk Eyecare, our comprehensive exams go beyond just checking your prescription. We use state-of-the-art equipment to evaluate the overall health of your eyes, identify early signs of disease, and track changes over time.
During your exam, we’ll assess your visual acuity, test for astigmatism, and perform retinal photography as needed to get a detailed view of your eye health. We also offer glaucoma screening, diabetic eye exams, and cataract evaluations to detect issues early, when treatment is most effective.
Contact Exams & Lens Fittings
If you’re interested in wearing contact lenses, our contact exams ensure you find the best fit for your eyes and lifestyle. Every eye is unique, and choosing the right contact lens requires careful measurement and evaluation. We offer:
- Custom contact lenses for hard-to-fit eyes
- Bifocal and multifocal lenses
- Lenses for astigmatism
- Daily, biweekly, and monthly disposable contacts
- Specialty lenses for dry eye and corneal irregularities
Our goal is to make contact lens wear comfortable and convenient. Whether you’re switching from glasses or exploring new options, we’ll guide you through every step, from fitting to follow-up.
Stylish Glasses for Every Look
At Tomahawk Eyecare, we know your glasses are more than just a vision aid: they’re part of your personal style. That’s why we carry a wide selection of frames and lenses to match every personality, budget, and activity level. Our in-house optical lab allows for quick, precise prescription fulfillment with fast turnaround times, often within the same day. We also specialize in advanced lens technology, including:
- Progressive and bifocal lenses
- Blue light blocking lenses
- Photochromic (transition) lenses
- UV protection and polarized sunglasses
- Prescription safety eyewear for work or hobbies
Whether you need computer glasses for office work, polarized lenses for fishing on Lake Nokomis, or prescription motorcycle glasses for riding through the Northwoods, we’ve got you covered.
Specialized Eye Care Services
We provide more than routine exams and prescriptions: our optometrists specialize in diagnosing, managing, and treating a wide range of eye conditions.
Glaucoma & Diabetic Eye Care
Our team uses advanced diagnostic tools to monitor intraocular pressure and assess optic nerve health for glaucoma detection and management. We also perform diabetic eye exams to check for early signs of diabetic retinopathy, helping patients preserve their sight.
Dry Eye & Allergy Eye Care
Dry, itchy eyes are common in Wisconsin’s varying seasons, especially with cold winters and pollen-filled springs. We offer customized dry eye treatments and allergy relief solutions to keep your eyes comfortable all year long.
Cataract & Macular Degeneration Evaluations
We provide cataract assessments and pre/post-operative care for patients undergoing surgery, along with ongoing monitoring for macular degeneration using modern retinal imaging.
Computer Vision & Eye Strain Treatment
If you spend hours working on a computer or digital device, we can help relieve symptoms of Computer Vision Syndrome with specialized lens coatings and ergonomic recommendations.
Sports & Safety Eyewear
We understand that life in Tomahawk often includes outdoor adventure. Whether you’re riding a motorcycle, hitting the trails off-road, or playing sports, we offer high-performance safety glasses and sports goggles designed to protect your eyes while providing sharp, clear vision.
Advanced Technology for Accurate Care
We believe technology and experience go hand in hand. Our clinic features the latest in optometric technology, including corneal topography, retinal photography, and diagnostic equipment for early disease detection. With these tools, we provide more accurate prescriptions, better fitting lenses, and detailed assessments of your eye health. And because we have an in-house lab, your lenses are cut and fitted right here — meaning you’ll never have to wait long to enjoy your new glasses.
LASIK Consultations & Post-Operative Care
If you’re considering LASIK or another corrective eye surgery, our team can help you determine if you’re a good candidate. We’ll perform pre-operative testing, coordinate with your surgeon, and provide post-operative care to ensure a smooth recovery and lasting results.
Local Experience You Can Trust
For more than 25 years, Tomahawk Eyecare has been part of this community — serving families, students, and retirees who call the Northwoods home. We know the unique vision challenges that come with life here in northern Wisconsin, from bright sunlight reflecting off Lake Mohawksin to snow glare during long winters.

Testimonials
A.J. Mastaw
Ok so most of the reviews I’ve read are 5 out of 5. And that’s spot on. Tomahawk Eyecare was GREAT! I had a 2 pm appointment and I was home with new glasses by 3 pm which was perfect because my old glasses had a crack in them. The staff was friendly and courteous! I can’t recommend them enough!
