Most patients don't know that Dr. Davis is serious about cycling. You'll find him on the trainer or outside riding almost every morning. Last weekend he participated in the Tour of Park City. The Tour of Park City is one of the toughest events in Utah cycling. It starts in Park City and heads to Evanston. From there riders take the scenic mirror lake hwy (150) back to Kamas and finally finish in Park City. It's 160 difficult miles with almost 10,000 feet of climbing and lots of head wind.

The FDA has a lot of information about finding the right LASIK doctor. Below are a list of things that you should be aware of if you are considering Refractive Surgery.

Along with the beautiful green mountains and fresh blooms of springtime in Utah also comes a high increase in pollen count. Unfortunately for many, that also means red, itchy, and puffy eyes as a result of pollen allergies. If you suffer from spring allergies, you’re not alone. Millions of Americans also suffer with eye allergies from pollen, but there are a few things you can do this season to keep your eyes happy and healthy.

Did you know that 50% of American over the age of 80 have cataracts? Or that more than 20 million Americans over the age of 40 are affected by cataracts? While injury or disease can cause cataracts in younger people, the fact is that most will develop cataracts in their later years as a result of aging. Unfortunately though, most people who are developing or have cataracts currently don’t even realize it.

When most people wear sunglasses, it’s typically for function (being able to see on a sunny day) and also for a fashion statement. But even when it might not seem bright enough outside to wear sunglasses, it’s still an important practice for keeping your vision in top shape.

Eye rubbing is common with many of us. Most of us rub our eyes sometimes without even recognizing that we do it.  But it can have detrimental effects on our eyes. Eye rubbing causes inflammation to occur making our eyes and lids red. It has been linked to eye diseases such as cataracts and keratoconus. It also loosens the skin around the eyes contributing to drooping eyelids as we age. It can have detrimental effects if we have had recent eye surgery. So next time you're tempted to rub think twice.
