We are not located at The LifeCentre, but are one mile away!

Let’s face it, knowing your pet has an eye problem can be frightening (and sometimes a bit icky!)

Flashbacks of having your own eyes checked and the dreaded “puff of air test” may come to mind. If thoughts like these make you want to run for the hills, let the staff at Ocean Veterinary Ophthalmology (OVO) take away the fear factor!

Our practice is devoted exclusively to the medical and surgical treatment of animal eye diseases and injuries. We truly believe in quality care and medicine. From the moment you walk into Ocean Veterinary Ophthalmology, we want your experience to be as pleasant and comfortable as possible.  Dr. Michelle Samuel, our board-certified veterinary ophthalmologist, and her experienced and knowledgeable staff are committed to helping you and your pet by providing answers and prompt treatment of your pet’s ocular disease in a compassionate and caring environment. Our practice utilizes modern medical and surgical techniques and state-of-the-art technology and equipment.
