1. Will my eyes be dilated?

All of our patients' eyes are dilated regularly to evaluate the peripheral retina where rare eye diseases hide. We can schedule that part of your examination at your convenience, usually after 5 PM.

2. What does an eye examination cost?

The first time a patient visits most any office the fees are a bit higher for obvious reasons. For example, established patients save the office time and supplies which save money. A comprehensive wellness medical exanimation will cost as low as $80. That includes innumerable tests of your eyes' performance and health. Ask for a complete list of typical tests!

3. Can I wear contact lenses?

Most everyone can now wear contact lenses! Our office caters to "cowards" whom have never before been successful with contacts. We will help you deal with the nominal nervousness of inserting, removing and caring for lenses. We also cater to financial cowards who fear losing money for contacts they do not want. Here's how it works: After your eye health exam, we can evaluate your eyes for contact lenses and insert diagnostic lenses. lf you wish to wear them home, we will have you fully trained on the care of your new lenses. We will then ask you to commit financially, assuming that you w ill be a grand success with lenses! We will give you a starter kit of solutions and will see you back in about a week.

4. What do contact lenses cost?

Tough question! There are so many varieties of ocular conditions and lenses to best meet each person's needs. Again, your first year will be the most involved due to the needed expertise of our doctors and staff, the training and retraining, the re-evaluations and follow-up evaluations. The various "professional fees" reflect the quality of our experience and services to properly prescribe your contact lenses. Expect a reduction of $50 to $100 in your fees the second year!

5. What if I decide I do not want to keep wearing contact lenses?

We will applaud your efforts and will simply collect your supplies for a refund of most all of your investment!!  The eye exam and $25 to $45 of the professional services cannot be refunded: a very small risk for what can be a wonderful change in your life!
