03 First visit

What to expect.

  1. Check in

    Bring your vision plan and medical insurance cards, your current glasses or contacts, and a list of any medications. Arriving a few minutes early keeps everything unhurried.

  2. The exam

    A technician runs your pre-testing, then your doctor examines the health of the whole eye — imaging included when it's called for — and explains everything in plain English.

  3. See the boutique

    If you need glasses or contacts, our opticians take it from there: frames fit to your face, lenses measured precisely, and honest guidance on what your vision plan covers.
