To protect our most vulnerable population, we are applying all suggested CDC Optometric Guidelines for our office as well as those proposed by the American Optometric Association. Below you will find listed our office policies and protocols regarding this topic. Our goal is to provide quality and necessary eye care to our community, while protecting our staff and patients. If you have any concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact our office.

2. All individuals will be screened with questions regarding COVID symptoms and have their temperature taken. Anyone with recent symptoms of sore throat, fever, cough, body aches, loss of sense of taste and smell, or recently returning to the U. S. for less than a two-week period will be asked to reschedule.
3. All individuals will be required to wear a mask once entering the doctor’s section.
