"Sneed Eye Clinic is expanding its business by adding on a new building. According to Dr. Douglas Marx, owner of Sneed Eye Clinic, the business is building an ambulatory surgery center in the lot next door to the clinic. Construction is expected to be completed in July.

Marx said he started in the business when he was recruited by Dr. J.Y. Massey after he got out of the naval service in 1987.

"It's such a pleasure to see the excitement on the faces of patients who have had their vision restored," Marx said.

Sneed Eye Clinic offers patients treatment and surgery for diseases of the eyes, laser surgery, cosmetic surgery, comprehensive eye exams and contact lenses, and the business has a large optical shop.

There are 13 employees at Sneed Eye Clinic including Kari Priborsky, O.D.; Joan Crider, office manager; and Jim Turinski, optical shop manager. The business offers free screenings for Lasik (vision correction) surgery.

"We pride ourselves in our friendly, family-oriented atmosphere where our patients always come first," Marx said.
