I just moved to town and needed to find a reliable eye doctor to get my glasses and contact lens prescription. These guys were recommended to me by my neighbor. Im so glad I took her advice. The staff from top to bottom was incredible. They are so warm and welcoming. They get you in fast and listen to every word you, as the patient, says. 10/10 !!!

In-House Eye Surgery
Because we have our own on-site surgical facility, we can perform surgical procedures in our office. This allows you to undergo surgical eye care from our ophthalmologist at the same office where you receive your routine eye care. Having our own surgical facility also allows us to provide the safest care possible. We use the latest technology for our surgical procedures and keep up with rigorous health and safety standards to ensure that your well-being always comes first.

Cataract Surgery
If your vision is blurry or dull because of cataracts, our Denver, Colorado, team can perform cataract surgery. By removing cataracts and replacing your damaged lens with an intraocular lens (IOL), Dr. Coco can help you achieve clear vision once again. The surgery is virtually painless, and most candidates experience a fairly quick recovery.

LASIK Surgery
As one of the first ophthalmology practices in all of Colorado to offer LASIK eye surgery, we are a popular destination for men and women who want freedom from their contact lenses or eyeglasses. To help you achieve the very best treatment outcomes, our ophthalmologist also performs Custom Wavefront LASIK.

Intraocular Lenses
If your cataracts have progressed to the point where glasses or contact lenses no longer provide proper vision correction, interocular lenses (IOLs) can help. Our Denver ophthalmologist can replace clouded lenses with an IOL that suits your individual needs.

Visian ICL
Visian ICL is a removable lens implant that can correct nearsightedness. An alternative to LASIK and PRK, Visian ICL is reversible, offers UV protection, and does not induce dry eye syndrome. Our ophthalmologist in Denver, Colorado, can review your candidacy for Visian ICL during your next visit.

Corneal Transplant
A damaged or diseased cornea or severe case of keratoconus can be treated with a corneal transplant. Commonly known as keratoplasty, corneal transplant surgery removes the damaged or diseased cornea and replaces it with a donor cornea. We can answer any questions you may have about keratoplasty at our vision care office.
Flexible Financing
We accept many types of medical and vision insurance. Our compassionate team will work with your insurance company to ensure you are maximizing your benefits.
For patients without insurance or who are receiving treatment not covered by insurance, we offer financing through CareCredit®. This third-party lender offers manageable monthly payment plans, allowing patients that qualify to pay off their balance over six to 60 months.

"The Best Decision I Have Ever Made"
Molly Picha
2019
I am so impressed with all the staff and the doctors. We have been going to the practice for several years. I had never met Dr. Coco. He is wonderful. Bernadette did a fantastic job detailing my cataract surgery and Dr. Coco did a stellar job calming me down the morning of the surgery. I was very nervous but Dr. Coco was very calm and reassuring. Just what I needed. Don’t hesitate to get cataract surgery and know that every member of the staff and the doctors are wonderful. It was a very positive experience. We are continuing to go regularly and my husband is anticipating his surgery in a year or so. I was so thrilled I actually made them cookies! Always a great thing to do!

I went in for a simple eye exam and got contacts that were great. But I was also given information of PRK surgery that would fix my vision long term. I felt very confident with Dr. Coco and decided to go ahead with prk surgery. Let me tell you, IT WAS THE BEST DECISION I HAVE EVER MADE. I wont have to mess with putting contacts in my eyes every morning or wearing glasses. THIS IS AMAZING.
Thank you very much Dr. Coco, Dr. Cushing and the entire Hines Sight staff, YOU GUYS ROCK!~
What to Expect on Your First Visit
Contrary to common misconceptions, you don't need a referral to see an ophthalmologist. Anyone can schedule an appointment at our office. To expedite your first visit and help us get to know you better, we encourage you to fill out the necessary forms prior to your appointment. You should also bring your insurance information, current contact lenses or eyeglasses, and a list of current medications.
At the start of your appointment, you will undergo a comprehensive eye exam. This exam will last anywhere from one to two hours. After reviewing your medical history, one of our eye doctors will conduct a visual acuity test and refraction assessment. We will then screen for eye diseases such as glaucoma and corneal disease. We will also evaluate the back of each eye to rule out serious diseases like macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy.
