As many of you may know, we had been in our previous location for over 30 years. During that time, and thanks to all of our loyal patients, we have continued to get busier and steadily grow every year. Due to this fact, we needed to expand our office to accommodate the growth. Our new office space is larger, but more efficiently laid out, and thereby allows us to better serve our patients. Since our new office is just off 15-501, or Fordham Blvd, we will have a lot more visibility and will be much easier for patients to locate the office moving forward.
Services
At Chapel Hill Eyecare, our top priority is patient care. Whether you are looking for new glasses, need contacts, have an older pair of glasses that needs repair, or just want to stop by and say hello, we're always ready to help! Our doctors, Dr. Scott Sikes and Dr. Laurel Gropper, along with our entire team look forward to seeing you soon!
Emily has a long history with our practice and brings many years of experience to her interaction with our patients. She is responsible for patient accounts, office operations, and insurance. She also assists with special testing and the optical boutique. Afton worked in the field of optometry awhile ago with Dr. Sikes' Dad, who is also an optometrist.
At Chapel Hill Eyecare we provide comprehensive eye care to people of all ages. Our concern is not only your eyeglass or contact lens prescription, but your eye health as well. We require all of our patients to either have their eyes dilated or have OPTOS Retinal Imaging at their annual exam.
At Chapel Hill Eyecare we take great care in assisting each patient in frame selection so that they have the best fit and vision possible. Selecting the proper frame and using the prescription as our guide, we strive to create a designer look with superior vision. Our goal is to have an enjoyable and educational experience while helping you decide what products best fit your needs. There are a multitude of lens choices: starting with single vision, bifocal, progressive, and specialized computer lenses.

Dr Sikes and his team are friendly, kind, professional, and also extremely patient (as when it took a number of visits to figure out the right contact lenses for me). I'm delighted to have discovered this optometrist!

I've never experienced such thorough diagnostics and sifting through many possibilities before working with Dr Gropper. She is so positive, patient and compassionate as well. I now have a solution to a complex eye issue and couldn't recommend this practice more highly!

Chapel Hill Eyecare was my original eye doctor when I lived in Carrboro and I had since moved back home (a little farther away) and went through a bad experience with another eye doctor in my area. Lydia was so quick to help me and instructed me how to contact my vision insurance so I could get my benefits reinstated. She was incredibly compassionate and helpful. Dr. Scott Sikes is a wonderful doctor, his dedication to his patients is unmatched and that shines through in how he treats everyone around him.

He confirmed my suspicions that my prescription was wrong and went to work to correct it. Emily helped me in picking up my glasses and she was great to work with as well, addressing any questions I had as well as assisting me with an adjustment. I highly recommend this office to anyone, it's well worth the drive. Thank you again everyone!

Dr. Sikes is wonderful and a very empathetic doctor! I had an issue with my eye over a weekend, and I was in a lot of pain. Dr. Sikes was able to see me for an emergency appointment that afternoon. Appreciate his willingness to help even after hours.

Today was my first visit. Very happy with everything. Everyone very friendly and helpful, every part of the exam was explained, not rushed. I plan to continue to go to them for all my eye care needs.

Super friendly staff, really well organized and efficient with your time. Dr. Sikes is always great, super knowledgeable and thorough. I would recommend to anyone, esp if you're looking for more personalized care and not viewed as just a number like at some of the bigger corporate type offices.

I took my S/O to an optometrist appointment and figured "hey, I also have vision insurance!" so I made an appointment while she was in her exam. Making the appointment was effortless thanks to the staff at the front desk, and the appointment I made was barely over a week out! Easy. I came in about twenty minutes early for my appointment and didn't wait 15 of that. Dr. Sikes was immediately cordial and had photos of my retina taken painlessly in the first five minutes. He's extremely professional, but also courteous and quick. We'll both be happy to return!
