Protecting Your Family’s Vision for the Future

Healthy eyes support everything you do—from kids learning in school to adults managing busy workdays and seniors enjoying their independence. Regular eye exams are the best way to maintain clear vision and detect issues before they become serious problems.

Dr. Heintz uses advanced testing to detect changes early, protect your long-term vision, and give you peace of mind. For families across Idaho Falls, an annual eye exam is a key step in staying healthy.

What to Expect During Your Exam

We want you to feel comfortable and confident during every visit. Dr. Heintz takes time to walk you through each step so you know exactly what’s happening and why it matters. Here’s what you can expect:

  1. Clear Vision Check: We measure how well you see up close and at a distance, making sure your prescription is accurate.

  2. Eye Health Screening: Using advanced tools, we look for early signs of eye conditions like glaucoma, cataracts, or macular degeneration, even before you notice symptoms.

  3. Personalized Care Plan: Dr. Heintz reviews your results with you, answers questions, and recommends the next steps for your vision.

Every exam is designed to be thorough but never rushed. Our goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and help you see clearly and feel cared for.

Our Advanced Technology

We use modern technology to give you a complete view of your eye health while keeping your visit comfortable. With Optomap retinal imaging, we can capture detailed images of the back of your eye in seconds, often without dilation. Our OCT scans let us see layers of your retina in incredible detail, helping us detect eye diseases early. And with digital refraction, we can measure your prescription with speed and accuracy.

These tools give Dr. Heintz the information he needs to protect your vision while making the exam process smoother for you. Families across Idaho Falls appreciate that they’re not only getting friendly, personal care; they’re also benefiting from some of the most advanced technology available.

Specialized Eye Exams

Every set of eyes is unique, and sometimes that means your exam needs a little extra attention. At Parkway Eyecare, we tailor eye exams to fit specific needs so you always get care that makes sense for you.

  • Pediatric Eye Exams: We welcome children as young as one year old. Early exams help make sure your child sees clearly, develops healthy vision, and feels confident in school and daily activities.

  • Contact Lens Exams: If you wear contacts or want to try them, we provide specialized fittings, including advanced lenses like sclerals. We’ll make sure your lenses fit comfortably and give you clear vision all day.

  • Medical Eye Exams: For patients with diabetes, glaucoma, macular degeneration, or other eye conditions, we offer thorough testing and ongoing monitoring to protect your long-term vision.

No matter your age or eye health, we’ll create an exam experience designed around you.

Our Patient-Centered Care 

Dr. Heintz and our team take pride in treating every person who walks through our doors with the same care and respect we’d want for our own families.

That means we don’t rush your appointment or push you through a routine. Instead, we listen, answer your questions, and explain your results in plain language. With nearly 40 years of service in Idaho Falls and surrounding communities, we’ve built lasting relationships by putting people first.
