<h3>Your Eye Exam</h3>
<p>Dr. McPhelan and Dr. Fuller place a high emphasis on patient care. All exams
are scheduled for 30 minutes. This gives them ample time to spend with the patient
to understand their needs, diagnose their visual condition and explain the patient's
options.</p>
<h3>Our State of the Art Equipment</h3>
<p>Dr. McPhelan and Dr. Fuller believe that investing in the latest technology
will ensure we are on the cutting edge of optometry and can deliver the highest
in patient care. From our high tech retinal digital camera to our patient friendly
'softest puff in the industry' pressure test, you can be assured of getting
the most comprehensive eye exam! </p>
<p>-----------</p>
<h3>Eyewear</h3>
<h3>Frames</h3>
<p>We carry an extensive selection of frames from numerous manufacturers. We constantly
vary our stock ensuring we have the latest fashions. If you are not sure what
you want, not to worry, all of our staff have years of frame styling experience...put
your trust in them, and they will find that perfect frame that fits your look
and personality! If you can't find a frame that you like from our current selection,
discuss it with our staff. We would be more than happy to research our catalogs
and consult our frame representatives to find the frame you desire.</p>
<h3>Lens Materials</h3>
<p>Lens material is often overlooked when purchasing eyewear. However, lens material
can make a huge difference in the optics of vision and in the aesthetics of
the eyewear. If you have a strong prescription, there have been major advancements
in materials and manufacturing that can greatly minimize the thickness of your
lenses. There have also been equal advancements in lens coatings that can increase
scratch resistance and decrease distracting reflections. We work with many local
labs and have full access to all of these advancements. For patient convenience,
we also offer an onsite lab.</p>
<h3>Prescription Sunglasses</h3>
<p>Many people don't realize that any ophthalmic frame can be made into prescription
sunglasses. Likewise, many of your favorite designer sunglasses can be made
with your prescription. There are many other sun options including transition
lenses that turn from clear to dark, or clip-on sun lenses that match your frame
shape. Different tints enhance your visual experience. The traditional gray
tint gives the truest color rendition. Brown lenses are very popular for sporting
applications where increased contrast recognition is needed. Yellow lenses serve
a similar purpose but in lower light levels, like on a cloudy day. Polarized
lenses are an absolute must for those that love the water or snow! </p>
<h3>Sunglasses</h3>
<p>Not all our frames are for those with prescription. If you wear contacts, had
LASIK, or are lucky enough to not need a prescription, we carry many brands
of sunglasses including: Oakley, Arnette, Spy, Gucci, Juicy, and Dolce & Gabbana.</p>
<p>-----------</p>
<h3>Contacts</h3>
<h3>Spherical Contacts</h3>
<p>We carry all brands of contacts, including daily disposables, 2 week, monthly,
quarterly, and yearly replacement lenses. </p>
<h3>Toric Contacts</h3>
<p>Many people with astigmatism have been told they were not candidates for soft
contacts. There have been many advancements in toric soft contact lenses and
many options now exist. </p>
<h3>Contacts You Can Sleep In</h3>
<p>There has been a major advancement in soft contact lense material. These new
lenses are made from silicon hydrogel, breathe between 3 to 7 times more than
traditional soft contact lenses, and dry out significantly less! They are available
in spherical, toric, and bifocal modalities, and some are approved for up to
30 days of continuous wear. <a href="http://www.nightandday.com/">Night and
Day</a></p>
<h3>Bifocal and Mono-vision Contacts for those over 40</h3>
<p>Over 40 and having a problem reading? We can help! There are several contact
lens options for those not ready for bifocal or reading glasses.</p>
<h3>Color Contacts</h3>
<p>Tired of your eye color? We can change it to blue, green, purple, or cat eye!
Make it a permanent change, or swap out your clear pair for a colorful night
on the town. <a href="http://www.freshlook.com.au/html/colorselector.shtml">Freshlook</a></p>
<h3>Rigid Gas Permeable</h3>
<p>-----------</p>
<h3>Medical/LASIK</h3>
<h3>Medical Services</h3>
<p>Dr. McPhelan and Dr. Fuller are both therapeutically certified in the state
of Arizona. From a simple stye or pink eye, to much more serious conditions
like uveitis or bacterial infection, these conditions can be diagnosed and treated
by both our doctors. Currently, we are medical providers for Blue Cross/Blue
Shield and VSP medical plans. If you have other medical insurance, many of these
plans will reimburse you for an out- of-network provider.</p>
<h3>LASIK Evaluations</h3>
<p>For those considering LASIK vision correction, we will give you an honest unbiased
evaluation, and also provide you with the pros and cons of the procedure. Dr.
McPhelan has undergone the procedure and can offer his first hand insight. Dr.
Fuller spent a year working for a valley LASIK center managing pre- and post-operative
patients. We work with several leading LASIK surgeons in the valley and can
perform your initial evaluation, as well as take responsibility for your follow-up
visits.</p>

<h3>Doctors</h3>
<h3>James K. McPhelan, OD</h3>
<p>Dr. James K. McPhelan graduated Magna Cum Laude from Southern California College
of Optometry in 1976. The following year he found himself practicing in Arizona.
In the 80's he opened the first 20/20 Eye Care office in Phoenix, and expanded
that into 15 different locations. He subsequently sold those offices to get
back into private practice and one-on- one patient care. In 1999 Dr. McPhelan
took over Optical Illusions to provide an easy going and personalized atmosphere
for eye examinations and eyewear sales.</p>
<h3>Bryan L. Fuller, OD</h3>
<p>Dr. Fuller received his undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering at Washington
State University. Yes, he graduated Cum Laude, but he has to hear how Dr. McPhelan
graduated Magna Cum Laude. He received his doctorate in optometry from The Ohio
Sate University (Go Bucks!) in 1998. Trying to escape the gloom of Washington
and Ohio he traveled to the Valley of the Sun in 1999. He worked for several
valley optometrists, including a local LASIK center. Dr. Fuller joined Dr. McPhelan
at Optical Illusions in 2000, and with the success of Optical Illusions, they
opened their second location, Optique at the Ridge, in December of 2005.</p>

<h3>Staff</h3>
<h3>Jessica Hall - Office Manager, Optique at the Ridge</h3>
<p>Jessica started working as an optician in 1998 while attend- ing Arizona State
University. By late 1999 she had enough of the commercial optical world and
took a chance with the new partnership of Dr. McPhelan and Dr. Fuller who had
just acquired a well established optometrist's office in Paradise Valley. She
graduated in 2002 with a Business Management degree, and continued working at
Optical Illusions where she assumed the office manager role in 2004. At the
end of 2005, Jessica was moved up North to Desert Ridge to open and manage our
brand new location. In her spare time, Jessica enjoys traveling, playing poker,
and spending time with her husband Jay.</p>
<h3>Kim Gettler - Office Manager , Optical Illusions</h3>
<p>Kim started in the optical industry in 1990 working for a local commercial
optical shop. She earned her Arizona Opticians license in 1992. By 1994 she
had worked her way into man- agement, and in 1995 she moved to the Midwest where
she gained her first experience with private practice optometry. After many
life changes (marriage and a child), she made her way back to Arizona and returned
to her previous employer as a store manager. In 2002, Kim was once again liberated
from commercial practice when she joined the staff at Optical Illusions. In
2005 she became the office manager and hasn't looked back since!</p>
<h3>Mavis Johnson - Optician</h3>
<p>Mavis got her start in the business with a large optical chain. Within 6 months
she was promoted to assistant manager, and within another year she was a store
general manager. While climbing up the corporate ladder she didn't let her dispensing
skills wane. She received her American Board of Opticianry certification in
2003, her National Contact Lens Examiners certification in 2004, and to top
it off she became an Arizona State Licensed Dispensing Optician in March of
2005. In April of 2005 she answered a higher calling and brought all her knowledge
to the patients of Optical Illusions!</p>
<h3>Juletta Ellingson - Optician</h3>
<p>Juletta has been working in the optical field since 1997. Her first employer
was a local private office in Mesa. Meanwhile, she attended Arizona State University
where she received her Bachelor's degree in Business Management. In 2002 Juletta
headed North to attend optometry school in Oregon, and after deciding she liked
glasses more than eyeballs, she decided to return to her optician roots. She
stayed in Oregon to manage a private office in the Portland area, but by April
of 2006, she had her fill of rain and headed back South to work for us at Optique
at the Ridge. She has been a board certified optician since 2005. When not at
work, Juletta enjoys spending time with her boyfriend and working on her scrapbook.
</p>
<h3>Andrea Meyer - Optician</h3>
<p>Andrea is the most recent addition to our staff. She started working for a
large national optical chain back in Kentucky four years ago. There she met
her Arizona born husband who dragged her back to the Valley of the Sun. She
was able to continue her employment with the same chain where she gained a strong
background in customer service and valuable laboratory experience. Andrea is
currently working toward her state optician license. In her spare time Andrea
enjoys spending time with her husband and their golden retriever BoAnne. </p>
