Arizona Eye Specialists

Arizona Eye Specialists At Arizona Eye Specialists, we strive to provide OUTSTANDING healthcare with compassion in our seven

Arizona Eye Specialists (Formally Associated Ophthalmologists) was founded in 1953 by Dr. John Aiello and Dr. Donald Longfellow. The first practice locations were in “Old Town” Scottsdale and in downtown Phoenix. In the late 1900’s and early 2000’s the practice grew with the addition of three valley locations; Glendale, Goodyear and Gilbert along with a centralized business office located in Scottsdale. Recently, a North Scottsdale location was added which brings the total of office locations throughout the valley to six as an added convenience to better serve the patient. Today the practice has 14 providers that cover general Ophthalmology including sub-specialties such as Cornea, Glaucoma, Neuro-Ophthalmology, Diabetes and Contact Lenses.

Between work, workouts, errands, and everything in between, your eyes are constantly working.

If you are noticing subtle changes like fatigue, blurry moments, or headaches, your vision may not be keeping up like it used to.

A comprehensive eye exam does more than check your prescription. It evaluates your overall eye health.

If it has been a while, this is your sign to check in. Call (480) 994-5012 and let’s keep your vision performing at its best.

Using eye drops should bring relief, but using them incorrectly can actually make things worse.

One of the most common mistakes is overusing redness-relief drops. They may make your eyes look better temporarily, but can lead to rebound redness over time.

If your eyes feel dry, irritated, or constantly uncomfortable, it is worth finding the right solution, not just a quick fix.

We can help you get to the root of it. Call (480) 994-5012 to schedule a dry eye evaluation.

Arizona sunshine does not wait for summer, and neither should your eye protection.

Spring UV rays can be just as intense, especially with longer days and more time outside. Without proper protection, this exposure can quietly contribute to cataracts and retinal damage over time.

A quality pair of 100% UV-blocking sunglasses is not just a style choice. It is daily protection.

Stop by and explore options that actually protect your eyes and look good doing it.

From colorful eggs to sunny Arizona afternoons, Easter is full of moments worth seeing clearly.

It is also a reminder of how much we rely on our vision for the little things. Finding hidden eggs, spotting smiles, soaking in spring colors.

Clear vision helps you stay present for the moments that matter most. Happy Easter from all of us here at Arizona Eye Specialists!

April is Sports Eye Safety Month, and your eyes deserve just as much protection as the rest of your body.

From pickleball courts to hiking trails, Arizona is made for movement. But all it takes is one unexpected impact to cause serious eye injury.

Protective eyewear is not just for pros. It is for anyone who wants to stay in the game safely.

If you are active outdoors or in sports, it might be time to upgrade your eye protection. Call (480) 994-5012 and let’s make sure your vision stays strong no matter how you play.

April Fools’ Day is full of tricks, but when it comes to your vision, myths can do more harm than good.

Here is one we hear a lot: “If I can see fine, I do not need an eye exam.”
Not quite.

Many eye conditions develop without obvious symptoms, especially in the early stages. By the time you notice changes, your vision may already be affected.

No jokes here. Staying ahead of your eye health is one of the smartest moves you can make.

If it has been a while, call (480) 994-5012 and schedule a comprehensive eye exam. Your future vision will thank you.

Your central vision helps you read, drive, recognize faces, and navigate daily life — and it’s exactly what AMD affects.
The good news? With regular exams, lifestyle adjustments, and early detection, you can stay ahead of changes long before they affect your independence.

If you’re 55+, have a family history of AMD, or notice subtle changes in clarity, a retinal exam can help you understand what’s happening.

To schedule, call (480) 994-5012.

Sudden flashes of light, a burst of new floaters, or a shadow in your side vision can be signs of a retinal tear — something that needs quick attention.

Most floaters are harmless, but changes that appear suddenly shouldn’t be brushed off.

If you’re unsure what you’re seeing, our retina specialists can help. Call (480) 994-5012 right away to schedule an evaluation.

When you’re focused on work, you blink way less often — and that can make dry eye symptoms worse.
If your eyes feel sandy, watery, or tired by mid-day, it may be the perfect time to revisit how your work setup affects your comfort.

Hydration, good lighting, proper monitor distance, and regular breaks all help — but a dry eye evaluation can pinpoint what your eyes truly need.

To schedule a visit, call (480) 994-5012.

Difficulty with night driving, halos around lights, and increased glare are some of the earliest signs of cataracts.
They often develop slowly, making the changes easy to ignore until they start interfering with daily life.

If you’ve noticed these shifts in your vision, a cataract evaluation can help you understand what’s changing and what to do next.

Call (480) 994-5012 to schedule an appointment.

If your eyes feel tired halfway through the day, it may not be “just the workload.”

If you want clearer, more comfortable workdays, call (480) 994-5012 to schedule your visit.
