This will help with the check-in process and provide the doctor with information needed to prescribe treatment or make a diagnosis. Please also bring your current insurance and a form of photo identification.

In some cases, your pupils must be dilated during an eye exam.

Dilation is necessary for a thorough evaluation of your eyes. Dilation may cause your vision to become blurry, and lights will appear brighter than usual.
