Something urgent?

Call us — don't wait for an appointment slot. Sudden flashes of light, a shower of new floaters, a curtain or shadow across your vision, an eye injury, or sudden pain or vision loss all need to be looked at quickly.

Outside office hours, go to the nearest emergency room.

Where to find us

Our two offices

What to bring to your first visit

  • Your insurance cards and a photo ID
  • Your current glasses, and your contact lenses or their boxes
  • A list of your medications, including any eye drops
  • Any relevant family history — particularly glaucoma or macular degeneration
  • Sunglasses, in case your eyes are dilated

If your eyes are dilated your near vision will be blurry and you'll be light-sensitive for a few hours, so consider arranging a ride for a first visit. We accept most government and commercial insurance — see insurance and fees.

Not sure who you need to see?

That's completely normal. Start with a comprehensive eye exam and we'll work it out from there — most of what we treat is found at a routine exam rather than because someone arrived asking for it. You can also read about our doctors or browse what we do.
