Let's Work Together
Many studies have shown that a large number of emergency room visits could have been treated by an optometrist. It is not always necessary to go to an emergency room for eye care as our optometrists are equipped to treat the majority of eye emergencies.
These signs above indicate that an immediate evaluation or consultation is necessary. Please call us to set up an emergency eye appointment should you need it!
