How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Animal Eye Clinic

Preventive care

Routine wellness exams can help identify health issues early, often before they become more serious or expensive to treat. Regular checkups are one of the most effective ways to manage long term veterinary costs.

Compare prescription pricing

Some pet medications prescribed at veterinary clinics may also be available through local or online pharmacies. It can be helpful to compare pricing when appropriate to reduce ongoing medication costs.

Consider pet insurance

Pet insurance may help cover a portion of eligible veterinary expenses depending on the plan, including accidents, illnesses, and in some cases preventive care. Coverage details, reimbursement levels, and deductibles vary by provider.

The doctors, staff, and facility are just excellent. Everyone we've dealt with were both on point and empathetic, and the facility runs like a clock. I wish my own health care were so! Our little Halle had cataracts (first photo) which completely took her vision. The docs were able to restore her sight but, more importantly, her joyous and curious personality (second photo)! She had a couple of complications - her left eye was damaged by the cataract where it wouldn't support an artificial lens. And, she got out of our sight and did some damage to the surgical work two weeks out. The doctors worked wonders on both issues, and she has turned out great. But, lesson learned -- when cataracts develop, you don't have a lot of time if you want to save their eyesight. Act promptly!

Everyone here was so amazing! Beau had a dermoid removed from his left eye. We dropped him off at 8am. The staff was so friendly and kept us updated during the day. I highly recommend Dr Graham and Animal Eye Clinic 💜

Amazing doctors and just really incredible staff. They make you feel so at easy when you pet is not feeling it’s best. We have been to both locations and cannot recommend them more.

Thank you so much Animal Eye! Dr. Graham and his nurse took great care of my Stanley at the Huntersville location today. If your pet needs eye care, this is the place to go. The lobby was beautiful and clean, and the staff was awesome in person and on the phone. 10/10 🐶❤️

We took our 20+ year old dog here for years until his passing. He was a very temperamental dog so he wasn’t the easiest patient but the staff was always very patient and kind with him. When our cat had a persistent eye issues that our (former) primary vet misdiagnosed three times we asked for a referral so he could be seen here and the vet tech correctly diagnosed our cat within minutes of looking at him. The vet confirmed the diagnosis and scheduled us for surgery which finally resolved our cat’s eye issues. Very grateful for the sweet & knowledgeable staff employed here.
