Progress through Eye Care Innovation, New Products and Expertise

by Dr. Erica Burton, Principal Optometrist
 

Your overall well-being relies on healthy eyes and great vision, which is why at Vision Solutions, we’re committed to ensuring our patients have access to the highest standard of vision care available. This commitment is reflected in our most recent progress – investments in innovative technologies, adoption of new eyeglass offerings, and a passion for continuous learning and leadership.
 

Vision Solutions recently introduced the following innovative lens and diagnostic technologies:

Avulux Migraine Glasses - The first clinically proven lens designed for relieving migraine and light sensitivity. Avulux filters specific wavelengths of light that trigger migraines, offering an effective way to manage symptoms and help prevent onset.

Neurolens –A new lens technology that addresses eye misalignment and digital eye strain, helping patients find relief from headaches, neck pain, and visual fatigue.

Electroretinography (ERG) – This functional vision testing tool allows us to assess retinal health in relation to systemic conditions such as diabetes, macular degeneration, and glaucoma. By detecting early signs of dysfunction, we can provide proactive treatment and management strategies for our patients.

In response to patient demand for stylish and functional eyewear, we have expanded our eyeglass offerings with new frame lines, including:

• ECO Eyewear – These frames feature polarized magnetic clip-on sun lenses, offering versatility and sustainability in one package.

• Versace Eyewear – A luxury brand known for its bold and elegant designs, now available in our eyeglass department.
   

Our team continues to excel in expertise and leadership within the optometric community. Here are a few of our latest achievements to report:

• Misty Lee Named Missouri Paraoptometric of the Year – We are incredibly proud of Misty, our Director of Clinics, for receiving this prestigious honor in recognition of her dedication and expertise in paraoptometry. In addition to her role at our practice, Misty serves as President of the Missouri Paraoptometric Association, advocating for excellence in patient care.

• Dr. Cameron Byergo Now Seeing Patients in Lamar – Previously serving only patients at our Nevada and Webb City offices, Dr. Byergo is now available in Lamar, bringing his high-quality, personalized eye care to our community.

• Dr. Erica Burton Advances Missouri Optometry – Dr. Burton continues her leadership roles in the Missouri Optometric Association, currently serving as Treasurer and Meeting Planning Chair.
