What to Expect On Your First Visit

Check in at the front desk 20 minutes early so we can confirm all necessary paperwork is complete. We accept many insurance plans. Once you’ve checked in, someone from our professional team will get to know you and your vision needs. We will help you understand our thorough examination process. We carefully examine and explain everything so there is a common understanding. When we are done, you will have a final prescription.
