K

eaton (Palmer) Fox was raised in Pensacola, Florida, by her loving family. She 

attended West Florida High School and the University of West Florida earning 

her degree in professional biology. While attending college Keaton worked under 

the direction of Dr. Barry Stein at Pearle Vision, which set her on the path of opticianry. 

After completing her degree, she continued working in the optical fi eld under the 

direction of Drs. Spear and Dr. Anderson at Sight and Sun EyeWorks and completed her 

apprenticeship earning her license in opticianry. She has gone on to advance her license 

by becoming board certifi ed; allowing her to work more closely with contact lens patients. 

Keaton holds the position of President of the Pensacola Chapter of Professional Opticians 

of Florida and holds a seat on the Board of Directors of Professional Opticians of Florida. 

Keaton’s dream was to open her own practice where she 

could offer patients the best care for their unique cases 

and bring the latest contact lens treatments available to 

Pensacola. That dream was realized in January 2018 with 

the opening of Midtown Dental and Vision. Her passion 

lies with the use of contact lenses to improve patients’ lives 

and slow corneal disease.

D

r. Lindsay 

Durtschi was 

born and 

raised in Jacksonville, 

FL. She graduated 

from Palm Beach 

Atlantic University 

in 2003 with her 

bachelor’s degree in 

Musical Theatre and 

Communications. 

After several years 

pursuing the life of an 

artist, Dr. Durtschi 

began to feel a pull 

towards Optometry 

and the visual sciences. 

Through a series of 

very fortunate events, 

she was lucky enough 

to attend the Southern 

College of Optometry 

in Memphis, TN.  

After graduating, 

Dr. Durtschi moved 

directly to Pensacola, 

FL, with her growing family. She has found Pensacola to be a 

wonderful city to raise her children and build a business. 

Dr. Durtschi enjoys staying active in her community and meeting 

new faces. Her professional affi liations include: Board of Trustees 

for the West Florida Optometric Association, Florida Optometric 

Association and COVD (Colleges of Optometrists in Vision 

Development).  She is also very passionate about her membership 

with the Junior League of Pensacola and remains very active with 

the philanthropic work they do locally and nationally for women and 

children.  Above all else, she enjoys spending time with her daughters 

and husband, loves summer days by the pool at the Pensacola Yacht 

Club and exploring all that the Panhandle has to offer.

a Pensacola 

“Wonder Woman”.

University’s Graduate 

School of Interior 

Design.  She has 

created designs and 

transformed homes and 

businesses in Pensacola 

and the Southeast for 

thirty years. 

While her 

accomplishments 

and talents as a 

designer would certainly qualify her as a “Wonder Woman”, it is her 

commitment to the community that sets her apart. She has been honored 

as Pensacola’s Volunteer of the Year for the Arts, served on the Gulf 

Coast Kid’s House Design Committee, Favor House Board, Lupus
