What to Expect

Plan Your Visit

Whether you’re a new patient or returning, we want your visit to be smooth and stress-free. This page will help you prepare for your appointment with us.


What to Expect at Your Appointment

Your comprehensive eye exam will include:

  • Vision testing and a full eye health evaluation

  • Retinal imaging to check for early signs of disease

  • Personalized care from one of our experienced optometrists


What to Bring

Please bring:

  • Your current glasses and/or contact lenses

  • A list of any medications you’re taking

  • Both your vision and medical insurance cards

Retinal Imaging Notice

As part of our commitment to your long-term eye health, we include Retinal Imaging and Optical Coherence Tomography(OCT) in all comprehensive eye exams. This advanced screening allows us to detect early signs of eye disease such as glaucoma, diabetes, and macular degeneration.

Many insurance plans do not cover this as a routine service. If not covered, we offer it at a discounted rate of $39 (normally $60).


No-Show & Late Cancellation Policy

Missed appointments impact our ability to care for all patients.

  • A $50 fee will be charged for no-shows or cancellations with less than 24 hours’ notice

  • This fee must be paid before rescheduling a new appointment


We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
