Your visit
A little planning makes it easier.
Prepare for check-in, testing and questions for your clinician.
- A request is not a bookingYou share the days that generally work. The office calls you and you agree an actual time.
- How long to allowPlan for the whole time onsite, not just the exam. Total time depends on your assessment.
- DilationIf your eyes are dilated, vision can stay blurry for a few hours. Ask whether you should arrange a ride.
- What we ask forA name and a phone number. No date of birth, no member ID and no medical history.

Useful questions
Before you come in.
Do I need to bring anything?
Your current glasses or contact lenses, a list of the medicines you take, and your insurance card if you plan to use it.
Can I be seen the same day?
Sometimes, but we will not promise it on a web page. Call your office and ask. That is the only honest answer.
What if I need to change or cancel?
Call the office. There is no self-service cancellation here.
Who confirms the appointment?
