Dr. Thomas P. Finley has announced the 25th anniversary in historic downtown Herndon, Dr. Finley’s Family Eyecare, Optometrists. Finley purchased his office from Dr. Charles Meyer in July 1989. Over the past 25 years, Finley has grown the practice from its original 100 year old Sears’ catalogue office building (still standing at 711 Pine Street) to his new office at 709 Pine Street (2.5 times larger, and blending into historic Herndon architecture).
In addition to providing quality eye care services and products, Finley has been active in the community. He is a member of the Herndon Rotary Club (past president), Chamber
of Commerce (past board member), Optimist Club (past youth sports’ coach for over 20 years), and Knights of Columbus (past board member). He is a past board member of the Jeanie
Schmidt Free clinic and has provided free eye examinations for the clinic since its inception in 2001.
As a tribute to his work and community service he has been the recipient of many awards.
Finley is committed to providing his patients with the highest standards of professional eyecare available. He is originally from Wilkes-Barre, Pa., receiving his Bachelor of Science degree from St. Francis University in Pennsylvania, and his Doctorate of Optometry from the Pennsylvania College of Optometry. Following graduation, he served as an optometry
officer in the United States Air Force where he was awarded the Meritorious Service Medal and the Commendation Medal. Finley has served as an adjunct clinical professor for the Pennsylvania College of Optometry, the University of Alabama School of Optometry, and the Inter American Puerto Rico School of Optometry. He has been a contact lens clinical investigator and currently serves as Advisory Board Member for TLC Laser Eye Centers. He has published several articles in professional and trade journals and newspapers, and lectured at educational conferences, service organizations, and schools.
Finley is a Fellow of the American Academy of Optometry, a Fellow of the Virginia Academy of Optometry, and a member of the American Optometric Association, Virginia Optometric Association, Northern Virginia Optometric Society, and Armed Forces Optometric Society. He is the Regional Administrator for Vision Source, the largest national organization of premier independent optometrists.
