👁️ Your eyes tell us more than you think.

A comprehensive eye exam isn’t just about checking your vision. It gives us a window into your overall health, from early signs of diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease, to catching conditions like glaucoma before they cause permanent vision loss.

That’s why skipping your annual exam is never worth the risk.

At Aker Kasten Eye Center, our board-certified team uses the most advanced technology to make sure you don’t just see clearly today, but for years to come.

“The results are mind-boggling. Matt has 20/20 vision. We’re beyond thrilled and still can’t believe it.”

Stories like Matthew’s are why we do what we do. After years of struggling with severe nearsightedness and being told LASIK wasn’t an option, EVO ICL changed his life and his vision, in one procedure.

👁 EVO ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) is a vision correction procedure designed for patients with moderate to severe nearsightedness — including those who aren’t candidates for LASIK. Instead of removing tissue, a soft, flexible lens is gently implanted inside the eye to provide clear, sharp vision.
✨ No removal of corneal tissue
✨ No dry eye side effects like LASIK can cause
✨ Immediate results
✨ Reversible if ever needed

This isn’t just about better vision. It’s about giving patients their freedom back.

Most people wait way too long for cataract surgery because they're nervous or unsure what to expect. The truth? It's one of the most life-changing procedures you can have.

1. It's truly transformative - Patients tell us they forgot how vibrant colors could be, how clear the world looks, and how much their quality of life improves almost immediately.

2. You'll see well and drive the very next day - That's right. Most patients are back to their normal activities within 24 hours. No long recovery, no extended downtime.

3. There's no pain involved - This is the biggest surprise for most patients. The procedure is quick, comfortable, and much easier than you'd expect.

If you've been putting off cataract surgery, it might be time to reconsider.

There’s been a lot of talk lately about GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and semaglutide and their potential connection to eye issues. 👀

But what’s actually being reported… and what does it mean for your vision?

Dr. Aker shares his expert perspective as an ophthalmologist and surgeon, and his take might surprise you.

If you or someone you love is on a GLP-1 medication, this is worth a watch.
