Routine vs. Medical

---

Health care is changing.  There is a growing emphasis on the medical aspects of vision care. We have updated our equipment including a Heidelburg Spectralis OCT which takes detailed pictures of the retina and optic nerves inside your eyes.   We are now recording medications and dosages.  Please bring your medication lists with you.  Also bring your medical insurance card.  If you have or we find diabetes, dry eye syndrome, eye allergies, new floaters, cataracts, or any other medical condition in your eyes, we can submit it to your medical insurance.  Vision-only plans such as Davis and EyeMed and sometimes VSP do not cover exams with a medical diagnosis.  You would be responsible for charges your insurance company does not cover.  Please ask about your coverage if you have questions.

We appreciate you coming and hope you understand the changes that we are all going through to improve the quality of your care.  Thanks.
