Better Vision is Our Goal

Drs. Charlene Haynes and Anna McKinney offer the latest technology to care for the health of your eyes. They specialize in primary eye care as well as glaucoma treatment, dry eye management, cataract co-management, and specialty contact lens fitting.

When you visit our office, rest assured that we use state-of-the-art technology to evaluate your eye health. Using this high-end equipment enables us to capture detailed in-depth images of the interior and exterior structures of your eyes. We want to see everything—inside and out.

We also want you to see everything in our beautiful optical salon. Our selection of frames and lenses will appeal to every style. From the classics to the latest designs, we have what you need to update your look!

Comprehensive eye health exams

Our doctors use the latest technology to deliver comprehensive eye examinations above and beyond the standard expectations of the Optometry Board. With each medical comprehensive eye examination, they conduct a detailed evaluation of the health of your eyes, thorough vision testing, and advanced prescription assessment.

Cutting Edge Technology

During your eye health exam, you will receive a variety of tests not routinely found in all “eye exams”. The OCT-Angiography instrument can detect macular degeneration, glaucoma and many other ocular pathologies before symptoms occur. We also use Clarus Retinal Imaging to monitor retinal health. Humphrey Visual Field testing is performed along with ocular pressures and pachymetry. For contact lens wearers, a Corneal Topographer will map the surface of your cornea to enhance the fitting process.  Our doctors thoroughly review all results of your exam and make sure to answer all of your questions.

Ocular Disease management

Our medical eye exams aim to detect the earliest signs of ocular diseases. If treatment is necessary, our doctors customize a plan for each patient’s individual needs. Our mission is to keep your vision as clear as possible for as long as possible. Glaucoma and other eye diseases sometimes show no visual symptoms until later stages, therefore, early detection is essential. Systemic diseases such as Hypertension, Diabetes, Arthritis, and Autoimmune Disorders also have ocular complications.

Our Office

Our state-of-the-art facility is located at 16793 San Pedro in San Antonio. 

In 1996, Dr. Charlene Haynes founded her practice and Optical Salon with a vision to provide exceptional eye care and customer service, while offering one of the most exclusive selections of fine eyewear in San Antonio.

As the practice grew and demand increased, Dr. Haynes oversaw the design and relocation to a larger, state-of-the-art facility in 2008. Our current location features the latest in eye care technology and luxury eyewear, all housed in a comfortable, elegant setting.

In 2021, Dr. Haynes welcomed Dr. Anna McKinney, a seasoned optometrist who has been practicing in San Antonio since 2015. Dr. McKinney has since expanded the services offered to include pediatric eye care, myopia management, scleral lens evaluations, and customized dry eye therapies. As Dr. Haynes prepares to retire at the end of 2024, she is excited to pass the baton to Dr. McKinney, confident that she will continue to uphold the office’s core values. Under Dr. McKinney’s leadership, the practice will remain dedicated to providing exceptional eye care and service to both new and returning patients.

We are currently in-network with VSP (Vision Service Plan) and Medicare. If you have a different insurance plan, you can still receive eye care services—such as exams, contacts, or glasses—from an out-of-network provider, and you may be eligible to submit a claim for partial reimbursement. Our office is here to assist you with this process. Please don’t hesitate to call us for more information on how we can help you navigate your reimbursement options.
