We are open and ready to see patients!

We are excited to be able to serve our community and will again be open from 8am-5pm daily for all routine care beginning Monday, May 4th. However, we will be doing things a little differently as we all adjust to maintain our social distancing guidelines.
We take the responsibility of returning to routine eye exams very serious and will strive to do our part to minimize health risks for patients and staff. As of Monday, May 4th we will begin a gradual and cautious approach to our day to day operations. We will have our office marked off according to the 6ft. social distancing guidelines as well as limitations to the number of patients in our building at one time.
As part of our commitment to providing the best care possible under these unusual circumstances we will implement the following processes:
Our doors will remain locked and patients will call upon arrival.

We will be following the CDC guidelines of no more than 10 people inside building at one time.

*Our staff will be wearing protective face coverings and gloves and advise our patients to do the same.

*Prior to your appointment you will receive by text a COVID-19 screening questionnaire. If you are unable to receive text you will be asked to fill this out upon entering the office.

*Upon entering a staff member will check your temperature according to the CDC guidelines, any temperature of 100 degrees or higher will be asked to reschedule and given a list of nearby COVID-19 testing locations.

*Only patients will be allowed in the office any family or friends who accompany you to your appointment will need to wait outside on bench or in vehicle.

*We will be altering our schedule to limit patient interaction and following a stringent process for disinfection between patients.

*As well as routine appointments we will be also scheduling all glasses and contact pickups and repairs when possible. There will also be a slip to be filled out with your repair need and your vehicle type. You will be asked to wait in your vehicle and once repaired your glasses will be returned to you.

*Due to the 6ft. social distancing guidelines we will be unable to perform any contact insertion and removal teaching at this time.
