Dr. Vicky Johns Vandervort is a Fellow in the American Academy of Optometry, an Associate member of the College of Optometrist in Vision Development and is a graduate of Southern California College of Optometry. Dr. Vandervort limits her practice to treatment of eye strain problems due to poor focusing skills, learning related vision disorders, pediatric vision problems, amblyopia (lazy eye) and strabismus (eye turns).

Originally from Iowa, Dr. Vandervort earned her Bachelor of Science degree in 1974 from the University of Iowa majoring in elementary education with a minor in early childhood development. She taught in the Lincoln, Nebraska public school system for four years. Believing that our vision is a precious gift from the Lord, Dr. Vandervort has combined her two degrees and dedicated her career to helping people of all ages maximize their potential in the classroom, workplace and their leisure activities.

Dr. Vicky is married to Dr. Robert Vandervort. They are partners in life and in business. Dr. Bob is also an optometrist, specializing in disease of the eye and rehabilitation of vision for those people who have lost their eyesight. They have a 20-year old son, Michael, who is multiply handicapped. He is the joy of their lives! Dr. Vicky has a minor in music and enjoys conducting English handbells at their church as well as at the state and regional level at festival conferences. If you ring bells, be sure to mention it to her!

There's more to healthy vision than 20/20 eyesight!
