40 Years of Eye Care

Celebrating 40 Years of Eye Care

Specialty Eye Institute began in 1978 when Paul H. Ernest, M.D., the company’s founder opened Jackson Eye Center in Jackson, Michigan. Since then, the company has grown into a multi-specialty ophthalmology practice with 24 doctors in 10 locations throughout Michigan and Ohio.

Enjoy a short video to learn more about how things have changed in the last 40 years:

Our company has changed names several times as it expanded including a re-branding from TLC Eyecare & Laser Centers to Specialty Eye Institute in 2017.

Hosting this event allows us to reflect on this milestone and thank our patients and communities who have allowed us to provide their eye care the past four decades.

Thank you!
