Astigmatism Treatment in Cherry Creek

Say Goodbye to Blurred & Distorted Vision

Have you been told you have astigmatism?

Are constant headaches and eyestrain impacting your life?

Astigmatism is a common eye condition characterized by an irregular curvature of the cornea that causes blurry, fuzzy, or distorted vision.

While astigmatism can certainly be a nuisance, there is no reason to suffer from it. It can be easily corrected with eyeglasses, contact lenses, or laser eye surgery.

For astigmatism treatment, contact Sumner Vision in Cherry Creek today!

How We Can Help

4 Ways to Treat Astigmatism

  • Prescription eyeglasses

    Mild to moderate levels of astigmatism can often be corrected with eyeglasses that contain a unique optical power (cylinder) to combat blurry vision caused by astigmatism.

  • Toric contact lenses

    Toric contact lenses are customized to your corneal shape and contain varying corrective powers throughout the lens. These soft contact lenses provide clear, sharp vision for people with mild to moderate astigmatism.

  • Scleral contact lenses

    Scleral contact lenses are ideal for moderate to severe astigmatism. These specialized rigid lenses are designed to arch over your irregular shaped cornea and rest on your sclera (the white part of your eye), to deliver clear vision.

  • Laser eye surgery

    If you're looking to free yourself from eyeglasses and contact lenses, laser eye surgery offers permanent astigmatism correction. Candidacy for laser eye surgery depends on your age, and the type and severity of your astigmatism.

No matter your level of astigmatism, Sumner Vision in Cherry Creek has the perfect solution for your needs.

Austin P. - Jun 18, 2025
My wife had an incredibly frustrating experience here trying to get a simple pair of contact lenses.... After multiple failed attempts to get her prescription right — despite her clearly explaining that the lenses were not working — the staff seemed more interested in insisting that their numbers were correct rather than actually listening to the patient. Instead of acknowledging the issue or offering real solutions, they resorted to gaslighting her by claiming that her vision was perfectly fine at 20/20 — even though she could clearly tell her vision was off and uncomfortable. It felt dismissive, unprofessional, and honestly insulting to be told that what she was experiencing wasn’t real. We expected care and accuracy — not attitude and deflection. We will definitely be taking our business elsewhere and recommend others think twice before trusting this place with their vision needs. Edit: After posting this review, Dr. Sumner personally reached out to us and took the time to make things right. We genuinely appreciate that they cared enough to follow up and resolve the situation. It’s clear that they value their patients and are willing to correct mistakes when they happen. That effort meant a lot to us.

Dr. Meyette is a true gem of an optometrist. During my visit he was friendly, thorough, and he expla... ined every aspect of my vision and overall eye health in a way that was clearly understandable. I had a very pleasant experience with him and with everyone I interacted with in the office. I definitely recommend Sumner Vision.
