We look forward to see you again soon! We place the highest priority on the health and safety of our patients and our eye care staff. Please read below:
Please read the following carefully to prepare for your visit to our office. We are implementing many new and more stringent procedures to ensure the health and safety of our patients and eye care personnel based on guidelines from the Alameda County Health Department and the CDC to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. During this time we are requiring the following for every patient and in-office encounter:

+All visits are by appointment only, there are no walk-in visits available
+All patients are required to wear their own personal mask before entering the office
+All patients are required to check in over the phone before their appointment

+Family or caregivers will need to wait outside in the car, as we will only allow patient to enter office. Verbal consent for minors is acceptable. Updates will be given family or caregiver over the phone as needed.
