Complete Eyecare
Your eye examination consists of various tests to evaluate the health of your eyes and to determine the prescription lenses needed for the best possible sight. We want you to know that our office will refer any patient to the appropriate specialist if we detect or suspect any pathology or visual problems treated by us.
The doctor and staff are committed to providing excellence in eyecare. We are constantly investing in new "high tech" instrumentation to allow us to serve you better. In our office you will find computerized auto-refractor, and visual filed perimeter. We offer photography of both the back and front of the eye, through retinal fundus photography and slit-lamp imaging systems. To assist us in the complete care of our contact lens patients, we utilize corneal topography to map the eye's front surface.
Comprehensive Eye ExamsComprehensive eye exams are one of the best ways to protect your vision. Knowing who to see for an exam, what's involved in the exam and how to prepare for the exam will help you get the most out of your visit.
An eye exam is one of the best ways to protect your vision because it can detect eye problems at their earliest stage — when they're most treatable. Regular eye exams give your doctor a chance to help you correct or adapt to vision changes. And Dr. Linton can give you expert tips on ways to reduce eyestrain and how to care for your eyes.
Children's Eyecare
It is important to keep a close watch on your child’s eyes through every stage of life. From birth through the school years, your child’s eyes change dramatically. To protect your child’s eye health and ensure no potential eye problem goes unnoticed, we thoroughly test your child’s eyes at each examination.
OCT - Optical Coherence Tomography
Optical Coherence Tomography(OCT) is a new, non-invasive technology used for imaging the retina, the multi-layered sensory tissue lining the back of the eye. The OCT instrument allows our doctor to see cross-sectional images of the retina in fine detail, and is revolutionizing the early detection and treatment of eye conditions such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and macular swelling related to diabetes and other conditions.
Optomap Retinal Imaging
The Optomap retinal imaging instrument offers an extremely wide angle view of the inside of the eye. During our examinations we search for problems including macular degeneration, retinal detachment, glaucoma, and ocular effects of systemic diseases such as diabetes and high blood pressure. These problems often develop without warning, and can lead to serious vision loss. Their ill effects can be viewed with the Optomap image, and help us get treatment started sooner. The Optomap is fast, easy and comfortable. Often the examination can be performed without dilating drops that blur vision and cause sensitivity to light.
Corneal Refractive Therapy - Sleep Your Way to Great Vision!
What is CRT?
Corneal Refractive Therapy is a non-surgical process clinically developed to reshape the cornea while you sleep.
Is Paragon CRT new?While, contact lens corneal reshaping is not a new concept, Paragon CRT is the one corneal reshaping modality with proven safety and efficacy and the first to earn FDA approval for nighttime Corneal Refractive Therapy.
Now you can be free of daytime contact lenses and glasses during your daily activities without undergoing surgery and enjoy great vision! Recent clinical research combined with the latest corneal surface mapping technology, computerized manufacturing and space age oxygen-breathing materials have brought new science to corneal reshaping. If you are skeptical about the long term effects of LASIK refractive surgery consider Paragon CRT as a safe effective alternative. Learn more about CRT

Wave Contact Lenses: The Most Advanced in the World
Just as no two fingerprints are the same, neither are two eyes. This is especially true with your cornea, the clear tissue where your contact lens sits. The cornea may look smooth and regular, but in fact its shape and texture are irregular.
Wave Contact Lenses are designed like no other lens. A special camera called a corneal topographer creates a topographic map that digitally describes your cornea with thousands of numbers. With Wave's special design software, your practitioner uses the data from the map to create a custom lens that follows almost every tiny curve and shape on your cornea. In the width of a hair, there may be as many as 10 distinct curves on the back of the lens. Wave lenses know exactly how the central and peripheral cornea are shaped. The fit follows the shape leading to a better more comfortable lens.
With so many curves, Wave lenses offer unrivaled comfort and sharper optics. Many unsuccessful contact lens wearers are successful Wave lens users.
Bifocal patients, keratoconus patients, transplant patients, post refractive surgery patients and other difficult-to-fit eyes should consider Wave Contact Lens Designs.
Dry Eye
Dry, Red, Itchy, Burning, Watery or Sensitive Eyes?
If there are not enough lubricating tears on the surface of your eyes, you may experience dry eye symptoms such as dry, red, itchy, burning or watery eyes, irritation and pain. Tear related problems are the most common medical reason people visit eye doctors.
Lacrimal Plugs
Lacrimal plugs are small, non-dissolvable lacrimal plugs which may provide long term relief from dry eye symptoms. Our doctors can insert these plugs in a matter of seconds during an office visit. After placement, the plugs cannot be seen, won't rub out or scratch your cornea, usually are not felt, and are removable. Why suffer any longer? Worldwide, more than one million people have been treated with dissolvable and non-dissolvable lacrimal or punctum plugs. Join the growing number of people who have chosen lacrimal occlusion to overcome their dry eye symptoms.
