Many people don’t realize that eyelashes are both functional and attractive. The purpose of eyelashes is to act as a first line of defense for our eyes, preventing airborne dirt, dust and other debris from reaching the delicate tissues of our eyes. You probably don’t know that when your eyes are closed, your eyelashes form a nearly impenetrable barrier against foreign irritants entering the eyes.

Unfortunately, we aren’t all blessed with naturally thick, luscious lashes. In fact, many people choose to get artificial eyelashes or eyelash extensions to make them appear longer or thicker than they really are. Unfortunately, the challenge of achieving voluminous eyelashes is even greater if you suffer from a condition called hypotrichosis.

What our
Patients Say

My family and I have had excellent care at Wink. The doctors and staff are warm, friendly, and knowledgeable. The glasses selection ranges from classic to quirky, and the contacts I ordered were a great fit. I especially appreciate how sweet & kid-friendly they are for my child’s eye care! 10/10 ❤️

Dr. Beute, was amazing! She was so thorough in her eye exam and answered all my questions. She really embodies the warmth and kindness a healthcare provider should have and I really appreciated that.

Dr Stacy Beute is as thorough as she is kind. We have a family history of glaucoma and other eye issues and she took her time during everyone’s examinations. The staff up front are so accommodating and welcoming as well. I cannot recommend Wink Optical enough.
