Who We Are

We look forward to welcoming you to Alternate View – a new practice concept where vision, vitality, and a touch of sophistication come together for an experience like no other. At Alternate View, we are building a practice where eye health is elevated through comprehensive care, the latest technologies, and individualized service. While we are a new concept and office, we are backed by a well-established and impact-focused family business with over 80 years of experience caring for Hoosiers. We are looking for a leading optometrist who will help us redefine the vision care experience for Gen X and Millennials, in a setting that seamlessly blends full-scope optometry, state-of-the-art optical services, curated eyewear collections, and revitalizing eye and facial aesthetics into a singular experience.
