 Now Available |
We are proud to announce that we now inventory Acuvue Oasys contact lenses in most powers. That means in most case you won't have to wait to get your contact lenses.
After your exam and follow-up you can leave with your annual supply. Most patients find it more convenient to order their annual supply at the time of their eye visit, therefore requiring less trips to the office, or waiting for an emergency to find out that their lenses are not in stock.
For a limited time there is $100 rebate on annual supply purchases exclusive to our Optical Zone patients. Take advantage of this offer, since this offer expires the end of December.
So if you are due for your annual exam, or are stretching out your last pair of contact lenses, please call us to schedule your appointment. For your convenience we will have your annual supply ready for you to pick up after your prescription is finalized.
We can also direct ship an annual supply of lenses to you at no additional cost. This is perfect for those college students who won't be back in town for a while.

| LASIK |
 As an optometrist, the number one question I get asked everyday is,
Am I a good candidate for Lasik surgery ?
No two eyes are alike. There are are many factors to consider such as prescription, corneal curvature and thickness, ocular and general health and most importantly, expectations of vision after surgery. After our consultation if we find that everything is agreeable, we can then schedule you for a surgical consultation. We have partnered with Cornea Associates of Texas, a proven specialty group that provides excellent care not only in Lasik but in treating many conditions involving the cornea. Click on the above links to access our website which describes the different Lasik procedures in detail. Visit our links section of our website to learn more about the surgeons and testimonials of patients that have had the procedure done.
Check out the offer that we have at the bottom of this page, since it is only for a limited time.

 Cool shades |
This month we are excited to highlight two new recent additions to our sunglass collection. We have expanded our Maui sunwear collection so that we now have the largest collection in Plano. We've added many new contemporary styles and sports frames. Click on the image above to see many of the new sport frames and contemporary frames that are available.
We are also proud to be one of the first practices to have Switch eyewear. This is a revolutionary new technology that allows you to switch your sunglasses out to lenses that are optimized to your lighting. From overcast skies to extremely bright sunlight, there is a lens for any sport or occasion. Do you play tennis, golf, or hike? There is a custom lens design that works for you. We can do sunglasses with and without prescription, perfect for those who wear contact lenses.

| HEALTH CARE REFORM: |
 ELECTRONIC RECORDS
We here at Optical Zone are doing our part by implementing electronic medical records. This will help your eye care visit in many ways in the future.
1) All of your records will be able to be retrieved from our computer terminals.
2) Records and reports can be easily sent to your primary eye care doctor or specialist.
3)We will eventually be able to e-prescribe ocular medications directly to your pharmacy of choice, saving you the time of submitting a prescription.
4) It will also improve efficiency in our office so that we will be better able to serve your eyecare needs, while reducing our time spent on administration.
We now have the ability for you to schedule your appointment request, fill out your patient history form and email it securely to our practice management software so that it is in our system prior to your visit, therefore saving you time in your visit. | |

I just want to remind everyone about our referral rewards program. Receive a $20 rebate on any service or materials in our office when you refer a new patient to us. You can combine this with your insurance benefits. Refer 5 friends and get $100 rebate for that cool pair of sunglasses or computer glasses that you need.
