About Us

Dr. Erin Vogt Stromberg, a graduate of the Pennsylvania College of Optometry, has loved Virginia Beach since the day she arrived. Having grown up in Minnesota, the beach eventually stole her heart and lured her from the Washington D.C. area, where she and her husband, a now locally-based landscape architect, had lived for several years.

Past experience includes private practices in both Virginia Beach and northern Virginia, as well as a medical rotation that brought her from Philadelphia to Charleston SC, Miami and Minneapolis. She has significant experience in managing and treating eye diseases, refracting for eyeglasses, and evaluating eyes for contact lenses. She has a doctorate degree in Optometry, as well as a B.A. in Biology from St. Mary’s University. She receives continuing education on ocular disease and practice management yearly, as well as a particular focus on new contact lens technologies. She has a special interest in family medicine, pediatrics, and assisting tourists to the area.

Dr. Stromberg is enjoying her role as a mom to daughters Maisie and Brooklyn. As a family-oriented practice, you may see the girls in the office from time to time as well! In her free time, Dr. Stromberg enjoys walking at Mount Trashmore, going to the beach, traveling and practicing yoga. She and her husband also enjoy the many festivals and concerts available throughout the year.
