"Dr. Santelli is very persistent and caring in finding the right contact lenses. These hybrid contacts are the most comfortable and fiddle-free I've ever worn."

Brett R.

"I highly recommend Dr. Santelli and Contact Lens Institute of Colorado! My most recent visit was efficient, professional, and comfortable. The office staff was super-friendly on the phone and in-person. With my permission, Contact Lens Institute contacted my previous eye care provider to obtain relevant patient records. Once at the office for my appointment, registration was handled quickly, and I waited just moments in nicely appointed waiting area. My exam was thorough, and she explained each detail, which gave me assurance that I was in good hands. My contact lens prescription is more complex than most peoples, so I'm very happy to find Dr. Santelli, who has years of experience fitting and prescribing for contact lens patients like me."

Bob and Lucille S.

She was incredibly thorough, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain every part of the process. It was reassuring to know that my vision was in such capable hands, and I left feeling confident about my eye health. I highly recommend Dr. Santelli for anyone looking for a professional and pleasant eye care experience!"

"I have had the best experience at the new clinic. Dr. Santelli is amazing at what she does. Over the years I have had a very difficult time finding the right fit and contact correction for my eyes with other providers. She has done a perfect job getting my prescription right and I can see well. She is a wonderful person, and I recommend her highly!"
