Optometrists in Arlington, VA – Welcome Back to Our Offices
At Visual Health Doctors of Optometry, we’ve missed seeing our patients! That’s why our optometrists in Arlington, VA are thrilled to announce we can begin seeing you in our offices again starting May 12! Although we’re still facing uncertain times, we want you to know that we’ve taken enhanced safety and health measures to protect your well-being while you’re in our offices.
When you come in for your next appointment, you can look forward to the following:
- Limiting eye exams to two per hour
- Limiting the number of employees & customers in our showroom
- Online patient forms – please fill out prior to your appointment
- Temperature check on arrival with a non-contact thermometer for our employees & patients
- PPE for all our employees including KN95 masks as well as face masks provided when patients are coming in
- All equipment will be cleaned after every exam
- Gloves will be provided to patients to make their frame purchase
- Hand hygiene will be enforced with handwashing for 20 seconds
- We will maintain 6’ distance between people as much as possible
Focused on Essential Eye Care
The first few weeks we will be focussing on essential eye care needs such as:
- Blurred vision which is significantly hampering day to day operations
- Broken or lost eyewear
- Needing new contact lenses for people who have previously worn contact lenses (We are excluding new contact lens fits at this time until June 10, as that’s when the governor lifts the stay at home order)
- Contact lens-induced redness in the eyes or discomfort leading to pain & sensitivity to light
- Flashes & floaters in the eyes with or without loss of vision
- Any red eye or pink eye, which may or not be associated with sensitivity to light, as well as any eye pain
- Eye injuries/trauma
We would recommend people who are coming in for eyeglass adjustments, etc. to come in after June 10 as that’s when the stay-at-home order gets lifted.
