Bio
A native of Ft. Smith, Dr. Emma Holden practices comprehensive optometry with a special focus on pediatrics, myopia management and the use of specialty contact lenses. She prides herself on taking the time to listen to the needs of her patients and their concerns. Dr. Holden is passionate about preventative care, especially with myopia management. Dr. Holden graduated from the University of Denver before attending Northeastern State University Oklahoma College of Optometry (NSUOCO) in Tahlequah, OK. After earning her Doctor of Optometry degree, she went on to complete several externships where she practiced in both rural and urban settings. When Dr. Holden’s not in clinic caring for her patients, you’ll find her enjoying Northwest Arkansas’ many trails with her Australian shepherd. She also loves fly fishing, cooking, hearing live music, collecting vinyl records and calling the hogs. Dr. Holden resides in Fayetteville with her family.
