Colorado Eye Institute's goal is to provide comprehensive, high quality, and great value eye care in an accessible, caring, and comfortable environment. We seek to exceed each patient's expectations in the delivery of competent, timely, and compassionate eye care. At Colorado Eye Institute, we serve patients utilizing state-of-the-art technology in a state-of-the-art facility.
We are equipped with the most advanced technology to customize your surgical experience. With our on-site ambulatory surgery center, our goal is to create a seamless transition for our patients. Cataract surgery is the only way to remove a cataract from your eye in order to restore your vision. It is one of the most common and effective surgical procedures performed in the United States, and one of the safest.
Cataracts, the clouding of the natural eye lens, affects about 22 million Americans over age 40. In fact, it's estimated by the time they reach age 80, more than half of Americans will have a cataract or will have had cataract surgery. In other words, if you live long enough, you're likely to be affected by cataracts.
Laser-assisted cataract surgery provides a highly customizable procedure for cataract removal. Utilizing the latest technology in laser precision and 3D imaging, laser-assisted treatment enables your surgeon to create a tailored treatment plan. James Lee, M.D., specializes in customized cataract surgery, LASIK, keratoconus, and corneal and external diseases of the eyes.
ORA System technology is a sophisticated device used to provide real-time measurements of the patients eye during cataract surgery. At any point during the procedure, the surgeon can take a measurement, which is then analyzed by the ORA System. These real-time measurements provide specific information guiding the surgeon through the procedure like a GPS.

I ADORE this office!
From start to finish my experience here was never less than STELLAR. My exam was spectacular and Dr. Roberts could not have been cooler! He answered all my questions with patience and honesty. By the time my appointment was over, I knew what lenses I wanted. My pre-op appointment was awesome, and Rebecca in the booking department is the most wonderful human being on this earth! That lady worked SO hard for me, and spent so much time on the phone with me....Definitely on my Christmas Card list! After a couple of postponements (my fault, not theirs), my surgery day arrived.

Incompetent! Choose another Ophthalmologist. Dr. Kyle Cox does not LISTEN! She has her own agenda and she doesn't hear a word you say. And their tech staff messed up a blood draw order, I had to come back for it and they refused to reimburse or compensate me.

I only have praise for Dr. Kyle Cox. She has changed my outlook on life. I feel so good about the surgery. She made me feel so much better about myself. I also can see more clearly at 180 degrees.
She explained the procedure in great details, gave the best post surgery instructions. The whole experience was painless. She is a kind and beautiful person. I already referred her and bragged about Dr.Cox. I say thank you also to her staff ; all professionals and attentive.
Sincerely, Francine Boisclair.

Hello world I can see clearly now!!!!!!! Dr. Kendra W. is freaking amazing. I had a cornea transplant nearly 8 years ago and was told that if I ever needed to wear a contact on that eye due to my condition I would have to have the continuous stitch removed from my eye to be fitted. Nope not at Colorado Eye Institute the have a new contact called Scleral which don’t require me to remove the stitch that I have in my eye. I was diagnosed with keratoconus @19 and could only wear hard contacts to put pressure on my cornea I had unfortunately made it to the steepest contact they make which forced surgery

Dr. Krivo did my eye exam. He answered my questions in a way that I could understand. It is easy to see that he is caring and concerned about the health of ones eyes and passionate about his work. We are very fortunate here in Woodland Park to have access to this high level of care.
