For more than 60 years, Intermountain Eye Center has been a leader in Boise eye care and a trusted name throughout the Treasure Valley. With five locations across Boise, Eagle, Meridian, and Nampa, we are Idaho’s largest multi-specialty eye care group. Our board-certified physicians and fellowship-trained surgeons offer everything from routine eye exams and glasses to advanced procedures like LASIK, cataract surgery, glaucoma and retina care.
We’re also home to a full-service optical center featuring prescription lenses, contact fittings, and designer eyewear. Whether you’re looking for preventative care, managing a complex condition, or exploring vision correction, our experienced team is here to help you see your best.
At Intermountain Eye Center, we offer a full spectrum of vision care services designed to support patients throughout every stage of life. Our Boise eye clinic is staffed with specialists in both medical and surgical eye care, and we use advanced diagnostic tools to ensure accurate treatment from the start.
LASIK has helped thousands of patients reduce their dependence on glasses and contacts. Our surgeons use modern laser technology to reshape the cornea with precision, offering a short recovery period and improved visual outcomes. Each LASIK consultation includes a thorough evaluation to ensure you’re a candidate for the procedure.
Cataracts are a common part of aging, but that doesn’t mean you have to live with cloudy vision. Our ophthalmologists perform cataract surgery using state-of-the-art techniques and premium intraocular lenses that can be tailored to your vision needs.
Glaucoma is often called the “silent thief of sight” because it can develop slowly without obvious symptoms. Our glaucoma specialists use advanced imaging and pressure monitoring to detect the disease early and create a long-term management plan. Treatment options may include prescription eye drops, laser procedures, or minimally invasive surgeries. Early diagnosis is the key to protecting your eyesight.
Retinal conditions like macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and retinal detachments require specialized care. Our retina team offers diagnostic testing and targeted treatment plans to preserve vision and slow disease progression. We combine clinical expertise with cutting-edge tools to detect subtle changes and make informed treatment decisions. Patients are monitored closely to ensure long-term success and comfort.
The cornea plays a critical role in clear vision, and even minor issues can cause discomfort or distortion. We treat corneal diseases, infections, dry eye, and other surface problems using evidence-based methods and custom therapies. Our approach balances relief from symptoms with a long-term plan for corneal health. If surgery is needed, our team will guide you through your options.
Regular eye exams are a foundation of good eye health. Our optometrists offer comprehensive exams for children, adults, and seniors, helping you stay ahead of changes in vision or signs of disease.
Our full-service optical shop includes frames for every face shape, style preference, and budget. We also fit a wide range of contact lenses, including specialty options for astigmatism or dry eyes. Our licensed opticians ensure every fit is comfortable and accurate. You’ll leave with eyewear that fits both your needs and your lifestyle.
Not everyone is a candidate for LASIK, but that doesn’t mean vision correction is out of reach. For patients with thin corneas, dry eyes, or unique vision needs, we offer alternative solutions like PRK (photorefractive keratectomy) and ICL (implantable collamer lenses). Both are safe, effective options backed by years of successful outcomes.
Every member of our clinical team is board certified, and many have completed fellowships in specialized fields. Our ophthalmic technicians maintain current certifications and receive ongoing training in the latest advancements. Several of our physicians are actively involved in research and training across the country, which helps keep our care informed and innovative.
At Intermountain Eye Center, we believe that excellent vision care begins with compassion, education, and experience you can trust.
