Dear Valued Patients,

Greetings! We pray that you have been “sheltering” well! Good news!! Today, May 1st, 2020, Governor DeWine lifted the restrictions prohibiting routine health examinations in Ohio, so we will gradually begin seeing patients during the month of May. Our office hours will be limited and by appointment only during the month of May. We will prioritize patients whose prescriptions for contacts have recently expired as well as patients with broken glasses and patients whose appointments were cancelled during the COVID shutdown. As of today, the Walmart Vision Center is not yet placing any new orders for glasses, only contact lenses.
We are in Phase I of the re-opening, and the virus is still circulating, so we are taking every precaution to prevent its spread. We will wait until Phase II or III to offer annual exams to high-risk individuals (seniors and immuno-compromised). During Phase I Dr. Rhonda will personally call to schedule your appointment and you will be asked a series of CDC COVID-19 screening questions. We will then direct you to our website to complete your health questionnaire that you can print and bring in to your appointment. We may also take your temperature when you arrive. We recommend that you wear a mask. We will only allow two patients in the Vision Center at any one time, so we will ask you to call from the parking lot upon arrival and we will call or text you when it is time to enter. With the exception of minor patients, your drivers, friends or family will not be permitted to come into the Vision Center during your appointments.
We appreciate your cooperation and understanding and patience with these new and hopefully temporary safety measures that we are taking during Phase I. We look forward to seeing you and helping you to see better again soon!
