Are you dealing with blurry vision, eye strain, or difficulty seeing at certain distances? Vision problems are more common than many people realize, and they can affect daily life in real ways — from reading road signs while driving to keeping up in a classroom. The good news is that most common vision problems are highly treatable with the right diagnosis and care. Recognizing the signs early is the first step toward clearer, more comfortable vision.
At Vision Source Mandan, Dr. Brittany Schauer, Dr. Wayne Aberle, and Dr. Danielle Dyke bring decades of combined experience diagnosing and treating the most common vision problems affecting patients in Mandan, Bismarck, and surrounding North Dakota communities. Our practice has served this region since 1950, combining advanced diagnostic technology with personalized care to help every patient achieve their clearest possible vision. According to the National Eye Institute, more than 150 million Americans have a refractive error — and many don’t know they could be seeing better.
Vision problems can develop slowly, making them easy to overlook at first. Many patients gradually adapt to declining clarity without realizing how much they’ve lost. Regular comprehensive eye exams at our Mandan office help detect changes early, preventing further decline and protecting your long-term eye health.
Living with untreated vision problems can affect your quality of life — from difficulty driving at night to frequent headaches and reduced productivity at work or school. Early diagnosis and proper correction make a meaningful difference for patients of all ages.


The right frames complement your face shape, fit comfortably throughout the day, and hold up to your lifestyle. Our Mandan optical boutique offers hundreds of frame styles across a wide range of price points.
As we age, presbyopia naturally develops, making it increasingly difficult to focus on nearby objects. This condition affects most adults over 40, regardless of their prior vision history. Many Mandan residents first notice presbyopia when they find themselves holding reading materials at arm’s length just to see the text clearly
At Vision Source Mandan, we offer several practical solutions for presbyopia, including premium progressive lenses, multifocal contacts, and other options suited to your lifestyle. The right treatment depends on your visual demands, whether you spend long hours outdoors, work at a computer, or need reliable near vision throughout the day. Our doctors take time to understand your daily routine before recommending a personalized correction plan.
Catching age-related vision problems early matters. Conditions like presbyopia, age-related macular degeneration, and early-stage glaucoma can develop without noticeable symptoms. Routine eye exams give our Mandan team the opportunity to monitor changes, diagnose conditions at their earliest stage, and help you maintain optimal vision well into the years ahead.
While Vision Source Mandan does not perform surgical procedures on-site, our doctors play an important role in the surgical process. We provide comprehensive evaluations, assess candidacy, refer patients to trusted surgeons in the region, and offer post-operative care to support the best possible outcomes.
We help diagnose and evaluate patients considering procedures, including LASIK, laser cataract surgery, corneal transplants, treatment for macular degeneration, and more. If you’re curious about whether a surgical option is right for you, our team will give you an honest, thorough assessment before any referral.

Don’t let vision problems go unaddressed. Whether you’ve noticed gradual changes in your clarity or haven’t had your eyes checked in years, a comprehensive eye exam at Vision Source Mandan is the right first step.
