At Dupage Optical in Addison, Ill., doctors and staff are trained to exude a passion for optometry and their patients’ overall health, using evidence-based medicine to preserve, protect, and restore their vision. This exceptional patient care is exemplified not only during the more than 5,000 “house call” eye exams the practice has performed for the homebound and disabled, but also when patients visit the clinic, which is equipped with the most advanced technology. Dupage Optical takes an innovative “wellness pre-testing” approach that has become its standard of care, which includes retinal imaging, optical coherence tomography, and Meibomian gland imaging. This process assures patients that the practice looks beyond their prescriptions and into their eye health to check for more than 300 systemic health conditions that

can manifest themselves in the eyes. The doctors—Steve Butzon, OD, and Caroline Cho, OD, have been lifetime members of the American Optometric Association and the Illinois Optometric Association. Dr. Butzon has traveled to Washington, D.C. and Springfield, Ill. to advocate on behalf of his profession and his patients. Dupage Optical continually invests in new technologies, products, and services, and credits this willingness to embrace change as key to its success after more than 30 years in practice.
