With 38 named lakes, Lakeland’s culture is built around outdoor recreation, quaint shops, craft breweries, and some of the best fine-dining experiences. Lakeland is surrounded by historic neighborhoods which you can feel as you stroll through tree-lined cobblestone and brick roads. With great schooling and several colleges including Polk State College and Florida Southern College, Lakeland offers an area great for a growing family.Established in 1954, Lakeland Eye Clinic has been supporting the community for over 50 years.
