a word from the founder

Meet Dr. John L. Bass, O.D.

I’ve been blessed to be a Doctor of Optometry for 29 years. Married with 4 wonderful children and 3 mischievous Dogs.

I started my journey with 4 years of education at Pacific University, located Forest Grove, Oregon in the foothills of the coastal mountain range. I earned a Biology degree and was accepted into Optometry school. I graduated with honors from Pacific University College of Optometry in 1995 and started my career in Fort Worth, Texas.

The time spent at First Eye Care and Eyes Nouveau was nothing short of amazing. During the 26 years I have also been serving UNTHSC prison services providing optometric care for the FMC prison system.

In 2002 we opened the second Eyes Nouveau in Southlake, Texas in the Southlake Town Square. This endeavor I was part of the ownership. Through these years I had the opportunity to care and treat many challenging corneal fits including scleral contacts lenses for Keratoconus,  Glaucoma , Diabetic Exams, Comprehensive Eye Exams and much more. I have and always will give 100% attention to each patient that has trusted me with their eye care.

Vision is precious and with so many options available I have always been humbled with the opportunity to serve so many people thus far and many more to come.
