'Restoring Vision. Changing Lives'





Helping people see better for over 26 years...
What
is a Synergeyes® Lens?
These contact lenses mixes rigid Gas Permeable and Soft Lens technology---the
comfort like a soft lens, but better vision like a gas permeable lens.
Can
I wear SynergEyes® lenses if I have severe astigmatism?
Yes. SynergEyes lenses can be designed to fit over Astigmatic eyes and vision
is not affected by lens rotation... Giving you stable, clear vision – blink
after blink,
even at night.
Will
is work for Keratoconus or if I had poor results with LASIK and RK?
Yes. We can design, using Corneal Mapping, a Synergeyes lens to treat a wide
range of vision orders, including post-LASIK, RK, Corneal transplant and Keratoconus
patients.
Get another opinion from us, before suffering any further with poor vision!
I
wear rigid Gas Permeable hard type lenses. Will SynergEyes lenses work for me?
Yes. These were intially fitted for people who need Gas Permeable or Hard contact
lenses, but had issues with comfort. SynergEyes significantly reduces problems
of irritating debris that collect under typical lenses. Also, you no longer
have to worry about contact lenses popping out unexpectedly.
How
often should I replace my lenses?
It is advised that you replace these lenses periodically as prescribed. The
reason for replacing your contact lenses is to prevent build up of protein and
other
deposits that cause unwanted discomfort, dryness and less precise vision. We
schedule follow-up visits to help look for vision or fitting changes that may
require lens replacements.
How
much do these lenses cost?
After your needs are determined at exam time, all options will be discussed
including other types of treatment. Fees range from about $600 to $2700 depending
on your prescription,
needs and disposable frequency. Vision Service Plan (VSP), Eye Med Vision and
other vision plans may provide some coverage, per your plan, if deemed medically
necessary.
We also offer no interest financing through GE Care Credit if eligible.
Do
I have to see a particular doctor to be fit with these lenses?
Yes, Synergeyes requires doctors to have special training and certification
to fit these lenses. Dr. Steve Kurtin, Plano, Texas, was one of the first in
Texas authorized to fit and design
every type of Synergeyes lens offered for patients including Bifocal,
Post-RK, LASIK, Keratoconus and Astigmatism correction.
Dr. Kurtin is a 'Synergyeyes Platinum Fitter' in the DFW area--- awarded by Synergeyes as having the highest level of expertise in fitting these lenses.
