About Us

​​​​​​​De’Cordova Eyewear was founded by Dr. Kerri-Ann Hodge. Its creation was inspired by one of Dr. Hodge’s most indelible life experiences: that of witnessing her father’s struggle with serious eye complications, which plague him while he was growing up, and ultimately led to his blindness, as a mature adult. This experience caused her to develop profound compassion for those suffering from eye diseases and vision disorders, igniting in her, a fervent desire to provide treatment and relief for such individuals. Therefore, in a quest to fulfill what she considers to be her life’s mission of prosocial service to humanity, Kerri-Ann entered the field of optometry as a well-trained, licensed practitioner, and established De’Cordova Eyewear, which she named after her beloved father, Bernard De'Cordova Coombs.

De’Cordova Eyewear is about more than just vision for the eyes. The impetus for the company is our passionate and sincere desire to help our customers find their full vision and purpose in life, holistically, starting with their eyes. To that end, we provide a comprehensive set of services that span from eye treatment to the entire body. Whether it is finding the best corrective or fashionable pair of lenses, or wanting to sit in a relaxing environment and be nurtured, or just enjoying a spa visit, you can find it at De’Cordova Eyewear. With this approach, we want you to feel fulfilled and empowered with your renewed vision, in order to maximize your full potentials.

At our clinics, you will find eye care experts who are keenly disciplined and knowledgeable about the treatment and care of your eyes. We also have specialized experts who deal with people suffering from diabetes or other afflicting diseases that can impact eye health and vision. From children to the elderly, we service all ages. And as a native Jamaican who was educated in the U.S., and a former registered nurse, Dr. Hodge possesses an acute understanding of working with people of various cultures. Accordingly, upon entering our doors, you can sense the love and care that De’Cordova embodies, in an environment in which each customer is treated with the utmost importance, dignity, and respect.
