Your Eye Doctors in Smithfield, RI
The optometrists at Pugliese Family Eye Care bring together the kind of trust, familiarity, and personal care that patients look for in a family practice.
With Dr. John Pugliese’s longstanding legacy and Dr. David Pugliese helping lead its next chapter, our team continues to care for local families with experience, clarity, and heart.
Meet the Optometrists Behind Your Vision Care
As a family-run practice spanning two generations, Pugliese Family Eye Care offers the kind of continuity and comfort that helps patients feel at ease. Our eye doctors take time to explain the why behind your eye care and guide families through each appointment with the knowledge, warmth, and personal attention that have long defined this office.
Built on Dr. John’s Approach to Eye Care
Pugliese Family Eye Care was founded by Dr. John Pugliese, whose nearly 50 years in optometry have shaped the practice’s long-standing reputation for thoughtful, dependable care.
Over the years, he has become a familiar and trusted presence in the community, building relationships with patients and staying involved through the Lions Club.
Dr. David Pugliese Continues a Legacy of Family Eye Care
After 13 years in the practice, Dr. David Pugliese is helping carry Pugliese Family Eye Care into its next chapter with the same family-centered values patients already know.
As he prepares to assume full ownership in July 2026, he brings added focus to sports vision and medical optometry, along with the kind of community involvement that shows up both in the office and on the field through his work coaching youth soccer and t-ball.
Two Generations, One Standard of Eye Care
What patients see at Pugliese Family Eye Care is not just a father-son practice, but two doctors who bring different strengths to the same eye clinic.
Dr. John’s decades of experience and Dr. David’s focus on growing areas like sports vision and medical optometry give families the benefit of care that feels both established and current.
