Innovations in Eyewear, Lenses, Contact Lenses and Optical Products
This page is what we call innovation!
Whether we are talking about new boundaries of:
- Breathable soft contacts
- Multifocal contacts
- Blue filter lens coatings to help filter out the blue light from digital devices (computers, tablets, phones, etc) that can continually disrupt the circadian rhythm leading to restless sleep nights.
- Digital (aspheric) lenses (single vision, progressive, or bifocals)
- Contacts with the transition technology, Acuvue Oasys with Transition!
- MiSight Program as part of our Myopic Treatment Program
- TearCare System to help Manage Dry Eyes in our everyday lives when the simple eye drops do not work.
Our office is here to answer your questions and show you what's out there.
TearCare System
TearCare is an in-office treatment for adults with evaporative dry eye caused by meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). These glands in your eyelids produce oils that help keep tears from evaporating too quickly. When the glands become blocked or do not work properly, your eyes may feel dry, gritty, or irritated.
The TearCare System applies controlled heat to the eyelids while allowing you to blink naturally. After warming the glands to soften thickened oils, your eye doctor manually expresses the glands to help clear blockages. Treatment may improve tear stability and ease dry eye symptoms, but results vary and ongoing care may be needed.
Warm compresses and other at-home care may still be part of your treatment plan. Your eye doctor can evaluate the cause of your symptoms and determine whether TearCare is appropriate for you. Watch the video below to learn how the treatment works.
Myopic Management Treatment with MiSight Contacts
Parents often ask how we can help as their children's vision changes. Our myopia management program offers MiSight contact lenses to help slow the progression of nearsightedness in eligible children. Unlike orthokeratology (Ortho-K) lenses, which are worn overnight, MiSight lenses are worn during the day. They correct blurry distance vision while helping slow the eye growth associated with worsening myopia. At your child's next eye exam, ask whether MiSight may be a good fit. Your eye doctor will consider your child's age, prescription, eye health, and ability to wear contact lenses safely. Watch the CooperVision video below, featuring Sarah Michelle Gellar of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and a family's experience with MiSight lenses.

IC! Berlin
Discover ic! berlin eyewear from Berlin, Germany, known for its innovative screwless hinge design. Its sheet-metal frames combine durable construction with clean lines and distinctive style. We enjoy bringing you eyewear that offers something different. Watch the video below, then visit our office to explore the collection and try on a pair.
TOM FORD
Explore TOM FORD eyewear at CORVISION OPTOMETRY, where distinctive design meets everyday style. Select models offer alternative-fit options designed for lower nose bridges. The video below introduces the collection, including nonprescription glasses with blue-light-filtering lenses. These lenses filter some blue light, but research has not shown that they reliably relieve digital eye strain. If screen use leaves your eyes tired or uncomfortable, ask us about your symptoms and eyewear options.
Nerdwax
Even well-fitting glasses can slip when your skin is oily or you're sweating. Nerdwax is a wax-based product designed to help keep your glasses in place without adding accessories such as ear hooks or extra nose pads. Ask to try it at our office, and let us check your frame fit if slipping is a frequent problem.
In the videos below, Nerdwax founder Don demonstrates how to apply the product, and actress Victoria Swilley shares her review. You can also watch Don's trampoline demonstration, but please do not attempt to recreate it. Before use, check the manufacturer's instructions and current ingredient list, especially if you have sensitive skin or allergies.
