Vision plans, such as VSP provide discounts for wellness exams, prescriptions for eyeglasses and contact lens services. During the course of your exam, the doctor may encounter symptoms or diagnose a medical condition that falls outside of what is considered routine vision care. This can also be based upon information you provide to us, or pre-existing diagnoses and medical conditions. Common examples are allergies, dry eye, headache, cataracts, glaucoma, and diabetes among others. In these cases we will bill your major medical insurance, and you are responsible for any applicable copays or deductibles. If you have both types of insurance, we can coordinate your benefits, when applicable, to minimize your out of pocket expense.
If you do not have vision or major medical insurance, payment is expected in full at the time of service. We do accept partial payments on eyeglass orders.
Please note we have a 24 hour cancellation policy. If you do not cancel within 24 hours of your appointment, there is a $30 non-refundable cancellation fee.
Unpaid balances will be sent to collections after 90 days. In the event your account is sent to collections an additional fee of 40% of the balance will be applied for services rendered to the collections agency. The agency may contact you via email, text message, phone call or physical mail. If you have previously been sent to collections we require payment prior to future appointments. Should we receive payment from your insurance, we will apply the amount previously paid towards any copays or deductibles, and refund remaining overages.
Please note that if you are the parent/guardian who is escorting a minor to their appointment, you are financially responsible for any balances incurred on the date of service. This policy applies regardless of custody/marital agreements.
