Dr. Phinney has been practicing eye care since 2005 and can co-manage your cataracts with the best team of surgeons in Northern Colorado.

Glaucoma usually begins after the age of 40 and has no symptoms. As it progresses, it causes undetectable loss of one’s peripheral (side) vision and permanent damage to the optic nerve. That’s why it is critical to have your eyes checked regularly.
At Windsor Eye Care & Vision Center, the glaucoma examination is a standard part of your regular eye examination. Should we find glaucoma, there are a variety of modern treatment options available throughout the office.

There are a variety of childhood eye diseases that can cause decreased vision in your child. Because many conditions such and amblyopia (lazy eye), crossed eyes (strabismus) and undetected refractive errors (nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism) cannot be detected without special equipment, regular exams are vital for children. Some of these can permanently decrease a child’s vision through his or her lifetime if not caught early.
