Ophthalmic Repair You Can Trust


Founder Dale Streib was employed by the Bausch + Lomb company’s Instrument Repair Division in Mansfield, Ohio in 1973. From there, he went on to receive factory training at Bausch + Lomb, American Optical, Reliance Medical, Topcon, and Marco Ophthalmic. Dale later moved with his family to Indianapolis, Indiana to work for an optical lab in their Instrument Division, eventually starting his own instrument-only repair and sales business.


In 2004, the family gave up their snowblower and moved to Georgia. After the move, Dale’s wife, Thelma, took over the administrative side of the business while their two boys attended school. Their oldest son, Tony, began working for the company while in high school and looks to carry on the family business when mom and dad decide to spend more time fishing. The younger of the sons followed his love for cars into a career as a General Manager of a Chevrolet dealership.
