Dr. Anders Hanson, O.D.
An Optometrist is a practitioner who provides primary eye and vision care, performs eye examinations to detect vision problems, and prescribes corrective lenses to correct those problems.
Our doctor is Dr. Anders Hansson, whom recently bought Alameda Eyes Optometry from Dr. Michael Britt. Dr. Hansson is a native of Alameda and a 1999 graduate of Alameda High. He studied Biology and Music at UC Davis and then completed his education at the Illinois College of Optometry receiving his OD degree in 2007. He did a one year residency at the VA Hospital in Columbus, Ohio learning to help some of the most demanding optometric patients and then practiced in Virginia Beach, VA before moving back to Alameda to purchase Alameda Eyes Optometry.
Dr. Hansson has extensive contact lens, pediatric and ocular disease experience, although he enjoys all aspects of optometry. He is excited to be back in the bay area with his wife and son. In his spare time he enjoys running, theater, and playing guitar.

Comprehensive Vision and Eye Health Examinations
Regular eye exams are an invaluable tool in maintaining healthy eyes by detecting and preventing disease. Some diseases develop slowly without causing pain or vision loss. Early detection of any problems can reduce the risk of further harm and allow for a choice of treatment options. The entire exam process can take an hour depending on the complexity of the problem. Each patient will be evaluated with a refraction, slit lamp, intraocular pressure and a retinal exam.
Pediatric Eye Care
We take pride in maintaining the vision of our younger patients in an environment that is lighthearted and fun. We want to insure the good sight, vision, and eye health for the rest of your child's life and take a preventative approach to his/her general health and eye health. We will work with your child's primary care physician to help keep his/her eyes healthy. It is important that all of our pediatric patients have healthy and efficient visual systems to help make visual demands of learning in school easier and fun.
