Pre-Visit

We appreciate that your time is precious, so we help you make the most of your visit with these time-saving on-line options. Not only can you relax while completing your pre-visit evaluation, but you can also increase the accuracy and efficiency of your in-office time.

Please bring to your exam:

Completed Forms – For your convenience, we strongly encourage you to use your patient portal to complete or update your information prior to your visit. Once you have an appointment scheduled, we will send you an email with directions for accessing our patient portal to complete your forms.

If for some reason you prefer not to use our portal, there are other way to complete your forms. We can email or text e-Forms to you and these can be up submitted back to us via our website, or you print out and complete paper forms, and then bring the completed paper forms to your appointment.
Medical Insurance Card & Vision Plan Card – Be sure to bring your insurance cards so we will be able to bill your insurance. As a free service to you, we will help you learn what benefits may be available to you.
Eyeglasses – Please bring ALL pairs of eyeglasses you currently use, including prescription or non-prescription reading glasses, sunglasses, etc.
Contact Lenses – It is best NOT to wear your current contacts to your appointment. Please bring them in a case and any carton or lens packets you have that indicate the lens series, power, and manufacturer.
List of Medications & Eye Drops – If you have not provided a full-list of medications in your completed forms. Please bring a written list of any medications or eye drops you use.

Dilation

The doctor may need to use drops to dilate your eyes in order to fully evaluate your internal health. This has the effect of temporarily increasing sensitivity to light and causing “fuzzy” vision at a near (reading) distance. You may need a driver or ride plan.

Consider browsing our custom-curated optical selection from the comfort of your home (you can even use our Virtual Try-On feature!).

Sometimes, having an Optomap retinal scan can take the place of a dilated exam. Ask our receptionist for details.
