As our community copes with the fast-moving spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus we hope you and yours are in good health during these stressful times.

During this period of social distancing and quarantine, we must all do our part by restricting activities outside the home except for getting medical care.

As of March 27, 2020, we will begin rescheduling routine eye examination appointments for March 31 and later. We have asked our staff to stay home from March 31 until April 12, 2020 to protect them, our patients, our community, our nation, and our planet. Despite the financial and emotional hardships this will cause, we ask every one of you to do the same.
