We have resumed seeing regular examinations with your safety in mind.  New precautions and procedures are being implemented to reduce community transmission of COVID-19.

Our practice has issued a limited Visitor policy. Masks are now optional upon entering the building.

*Minor patients must have parent/guardian accompany them to their visit. 

In addition, we ask if you feel ill, especially if you display known symptoms of COVID-19, that you please stay home. 

We understand that it may be difficult to know when to stay home. When in doubt, we encourage you to stay home for the safety of our staff and the members of our community. Please know that the health of your eyes is our top priority. If you are experiencing urgent eye-related issues and COVID-19 symptoms, we encourage you to schedule a virtual visit instead. Our doctors and staff members may be able to assess your condition and provide a solution, without requiring an in-office visit.

Centra has provided some valuable resources to help identify COVID-19 symptoms. Please view the graphic below if you are uncertain of whether or not it’s safer for you to stay at home.
