What to expect during your visit?

What to Expect

Your eyes will be dilated during this visit.  This may make your vision somewhat blurry or light-sensitive afterwards for several hours.  If you are driving, consider arranging for someone to drive you afterwards.  You want to bring sunglasses for after your visit. If you are having an injection or another office procedure, your eyes may be sore and blurry. Your eyes will be examined with instruments with lights and your retina will be imaged with specialized instruments. All this will allow the doctor to better diagnose and treat your condition.

What to Bring

1. Government-issued ID (like driver’s license)

2. Your medical insurance card

3. Medication list

4. Your medical history (prior medical records, if available)

5. Your doctor’s referral (if applicable)

6. Form of payment (like credit card)

7. Filled out patient onboarding form (if not already filled online or mailed)

When you arrive

If you are a new patient, please arrive 15 minutes before your appointment so that you can fill the new patient paperwork. The new patient evaluations may take over 90 minutes including testing. The routine return patient appointments usually run around an hour. If you are having a procedure (such as a retinal laser), that will extend your appointment time. We make every attempt at running on time.
