IOR Partners

We are thrilled to announce a first-of-its-kind collaboration model that brings ophthalmologists and optometrists together for patient-centered eye care.

In a landscape of declining reimbursements and rising corporate influence, this model creates a streamlined continuum of care that secures the future of independent practices while enhancing patient experience.

Legacy Eyecare and Kugler Vision in Omaha, NE are the first to embark in this partnership that delivers:
For Patients: A seamless, patient-centered experience.
For Surgeons: Increased surgical volume and a steady referral pipeline.
For ODs: New revenue, patient retention, and cohesive care.

“This partnership allows us to serve patients more efficiently, while expanding surgical opportunities. It redefines what collaboration in eye care can look like,” said Lance Kugler, MD.
