Special Instructions

For your first visit we ask that you arrive 15 minutes prior to your scheduled exam time so we can obtain the following information:

  • medical history

  • current medications

  • name of your family physician

  • insurance information, including policy numbers

It is often necessary for us to dilate our patient's pupils to effectively examine the inner eye. Therefore, you may want to bring sunglasses to protect your eyes from the daylight when you leave our office. You also may wish to bring someone to drive you home, since your vision may remain blurred for several hours after dilation. If you have other special needs, we encourage you to have someone accompany you during the entire visit.

We realize your time is important. Therefore, we try our best to stay on schedule. However, emergencies may occasionally cause us to run late. If this is a problem, please inform the receptionist.
