COVID-19 Update
Hello everybody!! We hope you are safe during this crisis!
The Centers for Disease Control and the American Optometric Association as well as the Governor have declared we can safely perform routine eyecare with precautions as of today, May 1st. Even so we are beginning Monday, May 11th to see patients for comprehensive eye exams, medical eye exams and in-office procedures. We are excited about returning to the office and look forward to serving you. We have used the time away from the center to further our education with significant training, improve our facility and learn about how to function in a COVID-19 world.
We are taking extra precautions during this time for the protection of our patients and staff. All patients will be contacted prior to their appointment and we are asking them to comply with the following:
– Upon arrival please call us at 512-249-0808 before entering the building and wait in your car. If any paperwork needs to be filled out or signed, a team member will bring this to you. We strongly encourage the use of our online paperwork on our website.
– Only patients will be allowed inside. If anyone else has come with you they will need to wait in the car. For minors, one adult will be allowed with you during your exam.
– Be sure you arrive wearing your own mask.
– We will have you sanitize your hands after walking in the door.
– Your temperature will be taken upon arrival. If you have a fever (over 99.5) we will have to reschedule your appointment and send you home. Staff temperatures will be taken before starting in the morning and afternoon.
– Exam times will be extended the first few weeks, so please be patient with scheduling. Exams will take longer for a while.
– If you have a pre-appointment that is not confirmed, we will move your appointment to end of June or beyond.
– We will have a new process for collecting most of your data via our website under “Online Forms”. This will be much safer not using physical paper.
These are just a few procedures that will be using to keep patients and my team as safe as possible. We hope to be caught up with seeing all missed appointments within 1-2 months so please be patient with us while scheduling. Please feel free to email if you have any questions.
