Meet Olivia! We’re sad to see her leave our team in a few weeks as she approaches graduation. We’re so proud of her. We can’t wait to see what she does as an optometrist someday!

Has it been a while since your last eye appointment? Here are 5 reasons why you should get your eyes checked regularly:

1. Keep your Sight Sharp: Spot issues early to an avoid losing clear vision.
2. Health Check for Your Eyes: Find out if your eyes are giving hints about your overall health.
3. Stay Clear and Focused: Update your glasses or contacts for crisp, precise vision.
4. Say Goodbye to Eye Strain: Reduce headaches and tiredness by fixing vision problems.
5. Protect Your Eyes: Shield them from sun damage and screen strain.

Starting today, a new segment we shall call PKTDT: Patients Know the Darndest Things!

It’s true, they really do! And we love it.

This week we learned:

In 2016 a hot air balloon in Texas crashed killing all 16 people on board. As a result, on November 16, 2022 the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) announced that it will now require hot air balloon pilots to hold medical certificates when flying paying passengers. This means, like other pilots, they will be needing a vision exam as part of that process.

After 10 years of practicing optometry, that was the first exam I’ve done on a hot air balloon pilot. I also learned that a fear of heights isn’t uncommon for air balloon pilots and that there was also a close call in Provo not too long ago. Fascinating and scary all at the same time! Kinda like Wednesday.

Swipe over to learn more about the crash and the new requirements. Shoutout and photo cred to Cynthia Staggs for The Watching Eye hot air balloon image. If you ever see an eyeball floating over Utah County you’ll know who’s in there. 🙋‍♂️

Also, our condolences to the family members of those 16 people who lost their lives. Hopefully this new requirement will save future lives of hot air balloon passengers.

Have you ever flown or would you ever fly in a hot air balloon?

Until next time, that’s a wrap for PKTDT!

Something somewhat vexing (or maybe even downright annoying) about medical offices is the lack of posted prices at check-in. Well, we are one of those offices. 😂

So…we’re posting this price here for those without insurance to know that life without vision insurance is A-Okay! (Sometimes people are even better off NOT using their insurance tbh.)

Last year we toyed with the idea of posting a menu with prices but then we quickly discovered why medical offices don’t do this: insurance complicates things and everyone’s out-of-pocket price ends up being different. Menus also give you an urge to order a side of fries and a chocolate shake, which isn’t a bad thing but we’re somehow always out of potatoes, sorry.

All that said, to save you the hassle of having to ask or call or “Google it” we are here to report that our self-pay price for a comprehensive glasses and health exam is $89–which includes a prompt-pay discount off of our usual and customary price. We also highly recommend a retinal screening with our hi-tech equipment which is an additional $40 but this is not required.

However, if you need a contact lens exam that is an additional price, depending on complexity, that you’re going to have to call us about. See? There we go being all mysterious and vexing. I guess that makes us a true medical office now. 😁

Meet the little birds of CFE. They unintentionally became the office mascots, however, the poor little tweeters remain nameless.

So, we need your help! What should we name Mr. and Mrs. Birdie?

Also, kudos to Alex for the handmade specs for Mr. Bird. If there were only glasses in his size…
