Welcome to Liberty Eye Care
Eric M. Selander, OD
We're no longer satisfied running our optometry practice the way everyone is used to, hampered by insurance companies' limitations. So, we've stepped outside the box.
We want you to come to our Athens, TN, eye doctor for the superior care that meets what YOU need. We'll check your eye health with Optomap® instead of routine dilation. You'll enjoy a digital refraction for determining your glasses and contact lens prescriptions.
We've made it all affordable so it works for everyone, whether you have vision insurance or not. Dr. Selander is dedicated to providing you with the eye care you need and want in Athens, TN.
Plus, enjoy the convenience of the Walmart Vision Center right next door, or use your prescriptions wherever YOU choose.
We're providing a higher level of eye care, distinguished by a patient-centered focus, with nondilated eye exams and digital refractions.

Dr. Eric M. Selander, O.D. is fully licensed and board certified and maintains ongoing education to stay abreast of the latest trends in the optometric field. Read on to learn more about our staff.
Dr. Selander has been practicing optometry since 1999, and opened our current Athens office in 2005, where he has practiced full-time since. In 2019, he took the bold step to adopt a Direct Eye Care approach. 'Now I work for my patients, not insurance companies,' he often remarks. Direct Eye Care allows him to spend more time with each patient, caring for their needs rather than satisfying insurance companies' demands, while also reducing patients' costs. His patient-first approach has been rewarded with multiple Best-of-the-Best nominations.
Liberty Eye Care is a family affair! Dr. Selander is joined by his gregarious wife, Erin, as office manager. She wears a multitude of hats, from receptionist to technician to contact lens trainer in order to keep the practice running smoothly!
And, we're excited that Sherry Seymour joined our staff in 2023 as both a receptionist and optometric tech! We're confident you will enjoy her help as much as we have.

Skip the dilation!
We know no one likes having their eyes dilated. Amazingly, today's technology allows us to screen your retinas without dilation better than we can with
traditional dilated examination!
Most practices that have ultra-widefield retinal imaging charge a premium for it, but we include this service in every eye exam at no additional charge.
