Dr. Jacobs received his Doctor of Optometry degree from the Illinois College of Optometry. He also had additional externships at the University of Chicago School of Medicine in the diagnosis and treatment of ocular disease.

In 2005, he opened his own private practice, Pinnacle Eyecare. For 14 years his office took care of the eyecare and eyewear needs of the Greater Lansing area. In 2019, Dr. Jacobs joined with Dr. Stephen Thompson to create East Lansing Family Eyecare.  Dr. Thompson left the practice in 2026, and Dr. Jacobs took over as sole provider.

Dr. Jacobs works with patients of all ages. He is dedicated to finding the perfect prescription for you, whether that be in glasses or contact lenses. Dr. Jacobs is very knowledgeable in the prescription and use of all different types of lenses (single vision, bifocal, progressives, special use) and is trained in fitting all types of contact lens designs and materials.  In addition, Dr. Jacobs is certified in the fitting of Orthokeratology myopia correcting contact lenses , as well as specialty contact lenses for the treatment and management of Keratoconus. Dr. Jacobs works with many Ophthalmologists in the surrounding area to co-manage your refractive surgery needs (LASIK, PRK, ICL, Cataracts). He will help you find the right doctor, and take care of you and your eyes both before and after your surgical procedures.
