Will You be using eye Drops?

 Yes.  We dilate all our patients during their initial visit.  Though we  have some flexibility with rescheduling this part of the exam, we feel  strongly about this.  Generally, a dilated eye exam is recommended every  3-5 years for our healthy patients, yearly for anyone with medical eye  problems. 

  Yes.  At the completion of the comprehensive eye exam, you may have a  copy of your eyeglasses prescription(s).  The contact lens prescription  may require a follow up visit, especially if changes are being made to  the lenses or if the fit of the lens needs to be evaluated further. 

  We accept most vision plans for routine eye care, including  comprehensive eye exams, glasses and contact lenses.  Every vision plan  differs in the coverage for glasses, contact lenses and exam services.   It is a simple process to verify those benefits for you.  We just need a  little information from you to begin.
 

We do our very best to verify benefit coverage before your scheduled visit, so there are no surprises.
 

We accept most medical insurances for medical eye care, including eye  emergencies, treatment for eye disease and conditions, including  diabetic eye care.  Be aware that co-pays for services, co-insurances  and deductibles will apply. 

  Many vision insurance plans, including Medicare, cover at least a  portion of eye exam services. Be sure to give us your insurance  information when scheduling your exam to avoid any misunderstandings  about your coverage.  If a medical problem affecting your eyes or your  sight is discovered during an eye examination, or we can attribute a  change in vision to a medical condition, then a portion of your visit  can be billed to your medical insurance.
 

Routine services for eye exams are $110.  Contact Lens Fees are $70 for yearly evaluations and $85 for a new fitting. 

 If you currently wear corrective lenses, bring all pairs of eyeglasses  you wear routinely. If you wear contacts that were prescribed elsewhere,  bring a copy of your most recent contact lens prescription.
 

Also, be sure to bring a copy of your vision insurance card and any  other medical insurance cards you have if you are seeking insurance  coverage for a portion of your fees.
Bring a list of any prescription or non-prescription medications you are  currently taking or that you took on a regular basis in the past.  Include vitamins, herbs and other non-traditional remedies you may use. 
 

Finally, prepare and bring a list of questions or concerns that you  would like to discuss with the doctor. And if you are interested in  specialty services such as contact lens fitting or laser surgery  evaluation, be sure to mention this — both when you schedule your exam  and when you check in on exam day.
