Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Contact lens NIRVANA! See Dr. Cross & you will not waste your time any longer. If you have a challenge wearing contact lenses - go see Dr. Cross at Boulder Vision Associates. This is the last stop you will make with the contact lens frustration hassle. I've been to several other practices, and had given up -- believing they had tried "everything". Dr. Cross goes above and beyond to ensure that the lenses he prescribes are as good as it gets - it's clear that he values "people over profits." He will take as long as it takes to ensure you invest in the specific script and brand that work for your unique biochemistry. In addition, he organizes twice-yearly eyesight clinics (pulling docs and med students from U. Michigan & more) to serve hundreds of people in the Caribbean who have no care at all. And last item worth noting that sets this practice apart - they have all the right, modern technology to keep a close watch over your eye health.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Cross?
I am VERY near sighted and have Keratoconus primarily in my left eye. After a recommendation, I switched to Dr. Cross based on his advice to look into Scleral lenses. Before then, I was constantly getting scratched corneas every 3 to 4 weeks for 2 or 3 years. I would have to leave out my contact for a couple of days until it healed and this was very difficult for work. Then I saw Dr. Cross and he fitted me for Scleral lenses. It made all the difference in the world. He helped me tremendously.
