Telemedicine makes it easier to connect with your optometrist when an in-office visit is not necessary or not possible. A virtual eye care appointment allows you to discuss certain eye health concerns, follow-up needs, and symptoms through a secure video visit from home, work, or another private location.
All you need is a smartphone, tablet, or computer with a camera, microphone, and internet connection. The team will provide instructions before your appointment so you know what to expect and how to join your virtual visit.
To schedule a telemedicine appointment, call our office or request an appointment online. Before confirming your visit, we may ask a few questions about your symptoms, medical history, and current eye care concerns. This helps us determine whether a virtual visit is appropriate or if you should be seen in person.
During your appointment, your optometrist will review your concerns, ask about your symptoms, and may guide you through simple observations or questions to better understand what is happening. In some cases, photos of the eye or eyelid may be helpful if they are clear and taken safely.
