Meet our Doctors & Staff
Meet the experienced and friendly doctors and staff who make Hazel Eye Center a proud provider of vision care products and services in Rhode Island.
With a passion for helping people see clearly and confidently, Dr. Brittany Hazelton founded Hazel Eye Center to make quality eye care approachable and accessible. Read more about her story below.
Meet Dr. Brittany Hazelton, the brains (and heart!) behind Hazel Eye Center.
A Rhode Islander at heart, Brittany grew up in East Greenwich and zoomed through Boston College’s honors program, earning a B.S. in Biology in 2015. She then leveled up with her Doctor of Optometry degree from the Pennsylvania College of Optometry at Salus University in 2018, graduating from their accelerated scholar’s program.
After a few exciting years practicing in the Bronx, she couldn’t resist coming back home to Rhode Island in 2021 to open her own eye-loving haven.
Dr. Hazelton’s superpowers include:
- Tackling eye diseases like glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and dry eye.
- Helping kids see the world clearly (vision therapy + pediatrics).
- Crafting the perfect specialty contact lens fit.
- Making private practice run like a well-oiled machine.
She’s also an active member of the College of Optometrists in Vision Development (COVD)—because even superheroes like to keep learning!
When she’s off the clock, Brittany can be found painting, skiing down slopes, or sampling the yummiest restaurants in Providence with her husband. Basically, she’s living her best Rhode Island life… and keeping eyes happy while she’s at it.
