Our Story
If you’ve lived in Rutland long, you may be aware that our name used to be Rutland Optical. In 1971, Rutland Optical opened its doors. The little optometry shop changed hands a few times over the years while serving the growing community of Rutland and building up our loyal client base.
In 1995, Bobbi Story purchased the practice, taking Rutland Optical to greater heights and moving it into a larger location in the Willow Park Plaza (where we are today).
After 30 years, Bobbi passed the torch on to Dr. Parekh, who changed the name and transformed the business into the Rutland Optometry you know today.
