The length of your appointment will vary based on the severity and complexity of your eye condition, and whether or not we are caring for emergency patients. The average appointment length is between two to three hours. We see patients by referral, and some referrals require our immediate attention. We cannot predict these referrals, and as a result our appointment schedule at times can be delayed.

Both of your eyes may be dilated and this can affect your ability to drive. It is recommended that you arrange transportation to and from our office.

It may be helpful to bring the following with you to your office visit:

• Your medical insurance cards
• Authorization from your primary care doctor or health insurance plan
• A list of your current medications with dosages. Be sure to include eye drops!
• Eyeglasses for both distance and near vision
• A protective mask that is comfortable to wear for a long duration
• Diabetic patients should consider bringing a snack

Please note RCV is still following COVID guidelines and we appreciate your cooperation during your visit!

Please contact us if you have any questions or concerns about your office visit. Our staff can also help answer many of your questions regarding our costs, but please contact your health insurance company with questions about your coverage.
