A scleral lens fitting involves an initial consultation, where your specific vision needs are assessed, followed by a comprehensive eye exam and a series of diagnostic tests. You’ll also undergo a trial fitting, allowing you to try the lenses on and experience how they function in your daily life for 1 to 2 weeks. […]
While the duration of these issues largely depends on the severity of the concussion, they typically resolve in about four weeks (although older adults may need longer). […]
Only experiencing allergy in one eye is rare. A single-eye allergic reaction happens when only one eye is exposed to the allergen causing the reaction. […]
A photofacial uses IPL technology to improve the appearance of skin by evening skin texture and reducing hyperpigmentation by stimulating collagen production in the skin. […]
Devices like TempSure radiofrequency (RF) treatments bridge eyecare with dermatology.
This treatment targets the root cause of dry eye by unclogging blocked meibomian glands and rejuvenates the look of skin by stimulating cellular turnover, elastin, and collagen production.
To help prepare you for your first session, we’ll walk you through what happens before, during, and after a TempSure treatment for dry eye and skin rejuvenation. […]
A single session of IPL treatment usually lasts 15-20 minutes, and most treatment plans consist of 3-4 sessions with 1-2 weeks between each session. Followup sessions may occur 6 months to a year after the initial treatment. […]
Vision therapy can benefit some individuals with dyslexia and ADHD. It’s important to note, however, that vision therapy is not a cure for these conditions. Rather, it aims to improve visual efficiency and processing, which can alleviate certain symptoms associated with dyslexia and ADHD. […]
Vision therapy is an effective, non-surgical, doctor-supervised treatment that retrains the brain and eyes to work together more efficiently. Rather than compensate for vision problems, vision therapy aims to treat and correct the visual system itself.

Aeric P. , Reading/Learning Problems Success Story
What do you want for Christmas? Too soon a question? Not for Aeric, he already knows he wants BOOKS! Thank you, Dr. Annette Astuto, for your referral that allowed us to help Aeric succeed.
“Before COVID, Aeric disliked school but could not explain why. WHen I homeschooled him, we discovered many issues & really, deeply struggled with learning. We sought help in many ways & landed at Heartland Eye Consultants. Here we found real answers, a solid game plan, and caring/dedicated support. Dr. Will made a good connection with Aeric right away. Lauren was patient and supportive. The road was long & there were struggles with staying on track, but the benefits were… amazing.
Aeric went from hating to even try to read, to asking for books for Christmas! He finally understood why he had such vision issues and was able to see clearer, better, and experience the world more fully. I won’t forget the day he said “I can see the leaves, not just green blur” & “there’s a pattern – its texture” as he looked around. And the day he got another set of glasses & could see depth better – he was astounded & could barely explain, but it was so profound for him. Realizing what he’d missed… and that he was not “different” or “broken” or “dumb”… Learning how to make his eyes listen to him better & all the homework changed him. He likes school now. He likes to read. He is able to play more video games now that he can read better.
I am so proud of his progress… and so very thankful we found Heartland Eye Consultants. Our lives were blessed & grew. Thank you so so much!”

He got his Scleral Contact Lenses! Have you been told you can never wear contact lenses? James found out that is not always true, and he has a great story to tell you about his journey into scleral contact lenses.
“I no longer have to wear very thick glasses. I had always been told that I could not have contacts because I have astigmatism. Recently, I was told that since my astigmatism was so severe, that no one would be able to give the proper prescription for a lens for my left eye.
I was referred to Heartland Eye Consultants because they might be able to help. Dr. Holly Ternus was not only able to fit me with contact lenses that were comfortable, but I was able to see 20/20 in both eyes, even the left eye that had previously had a cornea transplant. My vision is the best it has ever been.
I would recommend this doctor and clinic to everyone with astigmatism or who has been told they cannot wear contacts.”

“Initially, my husband and I were very skeptical and hesitant to start this “Vision Therapy” that my son’s optometrist had recommended. We continued to think that he would “grow out” of this so called condition that was causing him to cross his eyes. We finally took a leap of faith and went to his consultation appt. From the moment we first arrived, my son was treated like a VIP! The positivity and welcoming personality already set us at ease. Once we started to visit with Dr. Will, he knew how to “sell” his program by talking sports. This made Rowan motivated to do well. Our therapist, Kari, made out son feel good, keep a positive attitude and engage in it with full effort. Looking back, we are onl regretful for not having started the journey sooner. It was a significant financial commitment for us, however. With hardwork, investing our time and effort made every penny well worth it. My sons headaches, reading skills, and sports have all improved significantly and for that we/I am eternally grateful.” – Sally
