History
Upon graduating from Indiana University School of Optometry in 1990, Dr. Diane Short was employed with NuVision. Two years later, she began her own Bloomington, Indiana-based practice, Insights Optical, Inc. In 2001, after the practice outgrew its space in the College Mall, the office was moved to its present location on Clarizz Blvd. Dr. Diane's son, Zachary, began working in the practice at age 16; this lead to his decision to also pursue a career in optometry. Dr. Zachary Short earned his degree in 2006, and became a partner in the business. In the fall of 2006, Insights Optical opened an office in French Lick, Indiana; and, two years later, another office was opened in Mitchell, Indiana. Insights Optical takes pride in the fact that it is a family owned business that will always put the patient first.
