While knowledge and experience are vital to exceptional optometry care, today鈥檚 technology is allowing your eyecare team to do more than ever before.

Those innovations have not only brought improved vision, but also more options and a better patient experience.

Lab changes for your lenses

When you order new glasses, lenses come in large, round discs, which traditionally have been sized, traced, ground down and shaped to fit your selected frame, explains Dr. Glenn Dyck.

Now, the office has welcomed a brand new edging machine that can precisely shape and fit the lens 鈥� and typically do it in much less time.

鈥淭he addition of the latest technology to the lab has brought an even better fit for the patient and a faster turn-around. We鈥檙e able to get the best fit, the first time, and quicker that ever,鈥� Dr. Dyck says.

鈥淎nd because the machine is so reliable in its work with the lens, we can spend more time with the patient to ensure we鈥檙e choosing the right frames, with the right features for their needs.鈥�

For those whose prescriptions have traditionally meant a thicker lens, the new machine allows for the highest index lenses, providing a thinner, less conspicuous appearance.

鈥淚t all translates to better service and a better experience for the patient,鈥� Dr. Dyck says.

Contacts for astigmatism? You bet!

For many years, common belief held that contact lenses were not practical for people with astigmatism 鈥� or at very least were uncomfortable.

It鈥檚 time to change that thinking.

Toric contact lenses have a unique shape that accommodates the different curve of the cornea or lens that happens with astigmatism 鈥� a vision-changing option for those living with this common condition.

鈥淚f you have astigmatism, we can fit you,鈥� Dr. Dyck says.

It鈥檚 these kinds of innovations 鈥� with the accompanying focus on patient experience 鈥� that resonates with 性视界传媒 Optometry鈥檚 patients, and why most of the family practice鈥檚 new patients come from referrals, notes Dr. Dyck.
