OFFICE EXPANSION


We are pleased to announce that we have doubled the size of our office. We now have two exam rooms, a larger dispensary and waiting area, and a new testing area. While we are still asking patients to wait outside as much as possible to reduce your chances of exposure to Covid-19 the expanded space does make it safer for us to serve you inside when the weather or a patient's health conditions make waiting outside uncomfortable.


temporary changes due to covid-19

 On April 29 the California Optometric Association announced that "doctors of optometry in California are encouraged to gradually resume full scope of services when possible and safe to do so."

The Bay Area is still under a shelter in place order, but residents are allowed to seek all forms of healthcare as needed. We are required to maintain social distancing and all patients must wear masks to enter the office.

1- We are now open 7 days a week again. We have expanded our office space to create a larger waiting area to maintain social distancing. Please be advised that we are still trying to reduce patient contact so if the weather is good you will be asked to wait outside.

2- We will be spacing patients further apart than usual on the schedule, so you may have to wait longer for an appointment. Patients with urgent eye care needs will be given priority. We are not opening the online scheduler, as all patients must be health screened over the phone prior to scheduling an appointment. Please call if you need to be seen.

3- We are still encouraging patients to try to avoid coming physically to the office if it is not necessary. We are accepting orders for glasses and contacts over the phone. If your current prescription still works for you and you need to replace your glasses, please consider ordering a style you have had before to reduce the need for physical contact.

4- We are only allowing 3 patients at a time into the office. Please do not bring friends and family to the office. Send only one member of a family to pick up orders for the entire family. Patients who need adjustments can always come back later. Check in at the front door and a staff member will be assigned to serve you. Staff will serve patient needs outside whenever possible. All of our frames are being sanitized between each patient and we are fever screening anybody who comes to our office. You will be asked to sanitize your hands upon entering the office and again on exiting.

5- In this unprecedented situation, our staff are doing the best they can to achieve a balance between offering you the best service possible and keeping you and themselves safe from this virus. Please be patient with them to allow them the extra space necessary to follow the new protocols. We understand that it can be frustrating, but we must all pull together in these uncertain times to be careful. We are all learning here so please, be kind to each other.
