COVID-19 STATEMENT (Updated 04/02/2020)
As of Tuesday, March 18th, the CDC has recommended that all routine eye care be deferred until further notice, in order to slow the transmission of COVID-19 through our community.
Please be assured that we are still available to triage all urgent and emergent issues as well as help you with routine matters during this challenging time.
What does this mean?
1) If you are scheduled for an annual eye examination we will tentatively reschedule you starting MAY 1st.
2) If you need to replace glasses or contact lenses and need an extension on your prescription, please contact us and we will assist you on a case by case basis.
3) If you are running out of a medication please contact us and we will contact your pharmacy for refills.
4) If you have an ocular emergency we will make arrangements to see you in the office. Call 1-419-726-1541 between the hours of 10:00am and 2:00pm M-Th or leave a message on our voice mail (clearly stating your name and call back number) and one of our staff or doctors will return your call.
5) During this period of social distancing and quarantine, we must all do our part by restricting activities outside the home except for seeking medical care. Do not go to work, school, or public areas. Avoid using public transportation, ride-sharing, or taxis.
6) Please remember that 80% of COVID-19 cases are mild and resolve within a week. However, if you feel your symptoms are worsening, call ahead before visiting your doctor’s office or emergency department and tell them you have or may have COVID-19. This will help the office protect themselves and other patients.
The CDC and Ohio Department of Health have many wonderful resources. Arming yourself and your family with clear information will help you avoid undue stress.

We have asked the majority of our staff to stay home until further notice to protect them, our patients, our city, our nation, and our planet. Despite the financial and emotional hardships this will cause, we ask every one of you to do the same.
With sincerest wishes for your continued good health we remain at your service,
