Contact Lenses

Eyeglasses
Eyeglasses
Every eye exam, whether it is for contacts or not, comes with a prescription for eyeglasses. If you need progressive bifocals, sunglasses, computer glasses, or everyday glasses, we can prescribe what is best for your particular situation
Health check
Health check
We offer full, comprehensive eye exams with the recommended option of optomap retinal imaging, checking for any and all eye diseases, like cataracts, glaucoma, retinal detachments, macular detachments, or any others.
LASIK Co-Management
LASIK Co-Management
Dr. Burns had LASIK while living in Salt Lake City in 2004 after wearing contact and glasses for the previous 16 years! LASIK was the best option for him, and it may be the best option for you! Let him know if you would like to know more about this life-changing option!
OPTIONS FOR CONTACTS LENSES WHEN BIFOCALS GLASSES ARE NEEDED
OPTIONS FOR CONTACTS LENSES WHEN BIFOCALS GLASSES ARE NEEDED
TWO DISTANCE CONTACTS
TWO DISTANCE CONTACTS
With this option, you wear both contacts focused just for distance visio​n. This gives the best distance vision, but you will have to wear over-the-counter reading glasses for all your up-close​ visual needs.
MONOVISION
MONOVISION
With this option, you wear a distance contact in your dominant eye and a near contact in your non-dominant eye. This does not give you as good of distance vision as option number 1, but at the advantage of not needing OTC reading glasses nearly as much.
MULTIFOCAL CONTACTS
MULTIFOCAL CONTACTS
With this option, both eyes wear a contact that is focused half for the distance vision, and half for the near vision. Again, this does not give you as good of distance vision as option 1, but at the advantage of not needing the OTC reading glasses nearly as much.
