Welcome To
Vision Source Specialists
Vision Source Specialists invites you to rethink quality eye care with our highly-skilled optometrists, state-of-the-art vision technology, and educated staff at our two locations: downtown Rapid City and Philip, South Dakota. We have been providing vision care services such as comprehensive eye exams, contact fittings, treatment and diagnosis for eye diseases, and optical care in the Black Hills since 1998.
Our optical team can assist all patients in finding eyewear that meets vision and lifestyle needs. We offer eyeglass frames and sunglasses from an array of brands including, but not limited to: Ray Ban, Oakley, Tiffany, Coach, Michael Kors, Maui Jim, and Wiley X. Not only do we strive to provide impeccable patient care to everyone who walks in our doors, but all of our staff are trained in the Essilor Expert Program to ensure top-notch lens selection for all patients. We are also one of the only optometrists in the state of South Dakota who boast dry eye treatment and diagnosis through the latest technologies such as Lipiflow, Oculus Keratograph 5M, and more.
Our Rapid City eye doctors, Philip eye doctors, and staff are committed to helping our communities achieve and maintain clear and healthy vision for years to come.
Why are we different ?
What a great experience. Nice office staff and VERY thorough eye exam. They take complex subjects and make them understandable. They always take time explaining all the options and their effectiveness.
Todd P.1/21/2019The gentleman that helped me over the phone was awesome I wanted to know if they was in network with my insurance and he checked right over the phone and went over my benefits and made an appointments for my family. Whoever picks out the frames in there is on key love all the options they are in style with what’s popular right now! Thanks for the great costumer service!
Elizabeth K.1/24/2020Amazing customer service and very thorough exams. This household highly recommends Vision Source and Dr. Pearson!
Jennifer V.7/09/2019Very good professional eye care. I don't trust just anyone with my eyes. These people are excellent.
Charles W.2/24/2019Friendly staff and knowledgeable doctors. I was very impressed.
Cleo R.5/23/2019This is the best place to go if you have very bad eyes, like mine. They are very thoughtful and truly care about the way you see.
Trinty B.2/23/2019We have been patients of Dr Pearson’s for several years and today really reiterated why. Erin was my son’s tech and she immediately put him at ease and it felt like we have known each other our whole lives! She’s the most knowledgeable and patient tech we have had the pleasure of working with. Later, after picking out new frames Kendra offered to take the measurements saving us quite a bit of time.
Jen H.2/12/2020Drs. Jared and Dawn are fantastic! They have state-of-the art technology and equipment to accurately detect and inform your vision needs. Their staff are wonderful, professional and easy to work with. I've never worn glasses before and they patiently help guide me to perfect choices for my style and face shape. I highly recommend them!!Richard Ball
Richard B.10/01/2019The entire staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Dr. Wattenhofer was kind, knowledgeable, and answered all of my questions. I will definitely be going to her again. Overall, great service!
Rachel D.8/28/2019Dr Pearson and staff are AWESOME. Been a patient of his for at least 8 years and I seriously can't recommend Dr Pearson enough! Very efficient office, genuine concern for me as his patient, and he's a great listener that takes the time to make sure he understands my needs. His staff is the same way! Thanks for the great service!!
