Services
Cataract Surgery
Our advanced cataract surgery utilizes femtosecond laser technology and intraoperative testing for precise lens power adjustments. We offer toric and multifocal intraocular lenses to correct astigmatism and reduce dependence on glasses. The procedure involves removing clouded natural lenses and implanting customized artificial lenses, with options including light-adjustable technology for optimal vision outcomes.
Vision Exams
Comprehensive eye examinations include visual acuity testing, intraocular pressure measurement, and dilated fundus evaluation. Our optometrist assesses refractive errors, prescribes corrective lenses, and screens for ocular diseases like glaucoma and macular degeneration. We also perform specialized tests for prescription medication effects and dry eye syndrome.
Contact Lenses
We provide customized contact lens fittings for various vision needs, including daily wear, multifocal, and specialty lenses for astigmatism or irregular corneas. Our optometrist evaluates eye health and refractive errors to recommend optimal lens materials and designs, offering advanced options like SynergEyes and Kontur lenses for complex cases.
Glaucoma Treatment
Our glaucoma management includes laser treatments like selective laser trabeculoplasty and endocyclophotocoagulation during cataract surgery. We utilize iStent implant technology to improve fluid drainage and monitor intraocular pressure regularly. Treatment plans focus on preventing optic nerve damage through personalized medication regimens and advanced surgical interventions.
Dry Eye Therapy
We offer comprehensive dry eye management using prescription medications like Restasis, punctal plugs, and advanced diagnostic tools. Our treatments include Optase eyelid cleansers, moisture-retaining ointments, and environmental modification recommendations. The therapy addresses both symptoms and underlying causes of tear production deficiencies.

I would highly recommend the Scottsdale Eye Physicians as I no longer take my vision for granted. As our eyes change with age, it's imperative to have yearly exams and to find a great vision group you will be happy to stick with as they value your vision health as much as you do. Don't cheap out on your eyes! You will truly regret it when you have problems and find out that Costco vision lost all your vision history, and they don't even apologize because you are merely a customer number not a person to them. Dr. Eyrich and Dr. Kilpatrick are excellent and highly regarded by many. You will so glad you switch to them.

An excellent experience for my annual eye exam. Christina, was very professional yet friendly. No nonsense eye cam and listened to my choices or changing views till I was satisfied with my choice of clarity. I couldn't be happier with the intake exam and process. Dr. Kilpatrick is always pleasant, professional and friendly. I've been going to that office for several years.

I have been going to Scottsdale Eye Physicians for many years. I have always been treated with respect and like a valued patient. I know I can get any eye problems taken care of with great care. As a family, we have seen all of the Kilpatricks. Today i was seen by Dr Eyrich and was very pleased. He was very pleasant and made me feel that I was getting the same quality of care that I have received in the past. I would be very happy to recommend Scottsdale Eye Physicians to anyone that is looking for quality eye care.
