The safety of our patients is always our primary concern. We are asking patients not to bring family members in with them unless they are needed to facilitate their exam. When you arrive at our office, you will be asked to use the hand sanitizer from our no touch dispenser and we will take your temperature. If you have a fever or are showing signs of illness we will ask you to reschedule for a later date when you are well. After you have checked in, you may wait in your vehicle if you are not immediately called back to the exam room. For everyone's safety we are requiring all staff and patients to wear facemasks. Our office is being continually disinfected with bleach or alcohol solutions between each patient and, of course, we are frequently washing our hands. We can make arrangements to ship contact lenses or eyewear directly to your house if you would prefer not to return to the office for pickup.
