A new locally owned and operated optometric practice is now open in Ballston!

NOVA Optique + Eyecare was founded by Dr. Sara Varghai, who has been providing care to the Arlington community since 2014.

The practice features the latest technologies in eye care equipment such as Optos digital wide-field camera, digital phoropter, visual field analyzer and OCT machine. They also offer unique frame lines to Northern Virginia, including Dita, ic! berlin, Lindberg and other handcrafted lines.

Dr. Varghai set out to create a practice where individualized care is of utmost importance. She likes to know that her patients are seeing well while looking their best. Educating patients is critical to Dr. Varghai, as she takes time with each and every patient to go over exam results, diagnosis and treatment options. She finds this pertinent in maintaining eye health and the prevention of ocular disease.

She offers comprehensive eye exams for glasses and contacts, as well as ocular emergencies and infections. To schedule an appointment, reach out online, give the office a call at 703-879-4326 or just stop by!
