CONWAY — All eyes are on Conway Eye Care as they celebrate a century of service to the Mount Washington Valley community. Opened in 1925 by Dr. James Carter, the practice continues to evolve and expand in its commitment to ensuring quality vision care is available to all those who come through their doors.
Dr. Angelique Sawyer is only the third owner since Conway Eye Care opened and considers the anniversary to be more than a business milestone.
