At Niwot Eyecare & Vision Therapy we provide holistic vision care to all of our patients. We understand that vision is much more than being able to see the smallest letters on the eye chart. We will evaluate your vision performance and how it impacts your ability to drive, read, learn and perform in sports and hobbies. We also evaluate how your physical body impacts your vision. We are dedicated to educating you about your vision on a mind and body level and helping you improve and maintain your vision in a warm and comfortable environment.
Services

Stefanie has worked as a vision therapist since 2007. She enjoys collaborating with patients with binocular dysfunction, amblyopia, strabismus, pushing athletes to their peak performance. Her passion is traumatic brain injury. She gets joy from restoring hope through vision therapy. Her greatest reward is when patients say, "thank you for giving me my life back."

Dr. Chang is simply amazing. She is a very attentive listener and so knowledgeable in her practice. I really feel that all of my vision concerns (and other related symptoms) are acknowledged and addressed through thoughtful vision therapy and my glasses rx. I have made shocking progress with my vision and been relieved of a lot of discomfort, all from being under her care for less than 6 months. I can't recommend Niwot Eyecare enough.

I've worked with Dr. Chang twice and enjoyed meeting her and especially her gentle nature. I feel confident with the quality of her work. She is helping me with glasses and contacts; we plan to work on vision therapy, as well. My optometrist, Dr. Richard Cross at Boulder Vision Associates, referred me for vision therapy to Dr. Hutchins long ago. (She has an excellent reputation among the vision doc community.) The the offices are peaceful, inviting and it's pleasant listening to the staff make calls out to other patients, whilst we while sit in the waiting area.
The eyewear buyer has an excellent aesthetic; the optician is graceful and very good at knowing just which frames are worth trying on. She has a good eye for what will work on your face & the coloring of your hair and skin. It makes it so easy to feel confident in your selection. The only true complaint I have is that this organization does not accept insurance - plus the price on frames and lenses is beyond means of even the above average person, in my opinion.
If you are going to get your care here, do not waste your money on purchasing a vision policy - Simply put it aside in a savings account for your eyes. Today, vision insurance is generally just a prepaid services plan masquerading as "insurance ". and a few companies control the entire commercial food chain, meaning that the consumer has very few choices in eyewear (all brands owned by the holding company), then lock the consumer into a few, limited optometry options.
For the doctors who continue to accept insurance. The insurance companies take your prepaid vision services money, then turn around and behave in a predatory manner toward your independent doctors. To be forthright: it's driving them out of business. I enjoy my experience here - but again, this business caters to the wealthy. If you can afford it. This is a great place.

I am extremely impressed with Niwot Eyecare and Vision Therapy! The front desk actually got me an appointment the day I called, Dr. Chang is wonderfully welcoming and professional. The office is so clean and friendly, and it was truly a great experience. I will be a regular patient from this point on, and will be recommending Niwot Eyecare to all of my family and friends!
