Their are many rumors that circulate throughout the media in regards to LASIK surgery. Unfortunately, some of these reports don't paint some LASIK doctors and/or technology in a very positive light. We have recently seen completely false information distributed by major networks. It appears that some programs will do just about anything to boost ratings.
One of the most important factors in determining the success of LASIK on YOUR EYES is to determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure. At Davis Vision, it has been our experience that most people who are unhappy with their outcomes shouldn't have been cleared for LASIK in the first place. Every doctor has a different set of criteria for determining candidacy and that's where patients need to be aware and selective about the doctor they pick.

Summer is wrapping up and school is just around the corner. Have you had your child's eyes checked? Don't wait until they start falling behind in class because they can't see the board. As a full service eye care center, we provide glasses and/or contacts for children of all ages.

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.
