iZon: Not Just Hi-Def, Safer Too


Here at The Eye Studio we get really excited about these new iZon HD lenses because they offer a clarity never before possible in prescription eyeglasses. By scanning the surface of the eye and picking up irregularities in shape they can actually compensate for problems unique to individual eyes, not just mathematically similar to a pre-measured "power." It's something you really have to see to believe, and it's hard as eye care professionals not to get excited about it.

Well, now there's a new reason to get excited. In a third-party testing environment, iZon has been shown to be safer for driving at night than conventional eyeglass lenses. Here's what they said:
In nighttime driving tests, using an FDA validated night driving simulator, iZon High Resolution Lenses significantly improved nighttime driving performance over conventional glasses. iZon wearers driving at 55 MPH, under glare conditions, were able to detect, recognize and react to a pedestrian in the road on average 20 feet faster. This represents a significant safety margin, and quite possibly, the difference between life and death.

We Love Our Patients!

Our patients are always sending us the most wonderful comments, so we thought we'd share a few with you. For privacy reasons, of course, we cannot share names of our lovely patients, but you know who you are, and we thank you!

"I was very pleased with the service I received and the time/care invested by the doctor and staff."

"I rated The Eye Studio as excellent and then upgraded my evaluation to "exceeded my expectations" when Dr. Thomas phoned me to ask about well being."

"The best eye care service I've ever received. I will most definitely encourage friends and family members to visit this office. The staff far exceeded my expectations."

"Your office blew my expectations away! Your use of the website was extremely helpful. I submitted my appointment schedule and was contacted within 20 minutes and schedule for an appointment the next day. I was very surprised at how quickly you were able to see me. Your office has a great comfort and feel! The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. They were able to answer my questions and explained everything they were doing. They even offered to take my coats! The doctor was very friendly, nice, and knowledgeable. I felt at ease through the whole appointment. My overall experience was great. I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a new eye doctor."

And we recommend you all as fantastic patients! Thanks again for all the kind words. We love you!
