To Our Valued Patients:
We have carefully planned how we can promote the safest experience and highest level of customer service to welcome you back. We are taking the following precautions during our reopening:
- All appointments are to be confirmed by phone so we can clearly communicate the new office protocols (except telemedicine appointments can be made using the EyecareLive app).
- All services are by appointment only. This includes eye exams, medical exams, picking up glasses or contacts, frame adjustments, etc.
- We will monitor the number of people in the office. Only the scheduled patient will be able to enter unless you need a caregiver or guardian to assist you. Please knock on the front door upon your arrival and we will unlock it for you to enter at your scheduled time.
- Patients are screened prior to coming in for known COVID-19 symptoms. Also, screened if patient or anyone in their household had contact with another person with COVID19 within the past 14 days.
- Patients are required to bring their own mask and wear it upon arrival.
- Temperatures will be taken with a non-contact thermometer at check-in.
- We will ask patients to use hand sanitizer available at the check-in counter (or wash hands) upon entering.
- Social distancing is enforced between patients.
- All Exam Rooms and Pretest room have purified air with HEPA filters & UVC sanitizer.
- New Frame Policy for browsing. Frame selection will be handled by our staff based on patient frame styling requests. All frames handled will be sanitized with a UV sanitizer before being returned to shelves.
- Continuing our standard policy, all medical equipment is sterilized before and after each patient. All surfaces that the patient encounters are sanitized before and after each patient.
- Hand sanitizing stations are set up throughout the office for our patients.
- Our doctors and staff are thoroughly screened and monitored daily to ensure they are healthy and always wearing adequate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). We have also added protective shields to various testing equipment.
