Prior to appointment, have a written referral and office notes from referring and/or treating physician(s) sent to Progressive Eye Care, along with an laboratory results and any CT or MRI scan results.
Expect appointment to be at least 2 1/2 to 4 hours. These appointments involve a thorough assessment of patient and patient family history and a careful, extensive examination including a visual field test. Your pupils will be dilated, which can cause vision to be blurry and eyes to be light sensitive for a few hours.
If possible – pick up actual images or a CD of CT and/or MRI scan results.
Bring a complete list of medications including the name of the drug and the dosage. This includes any prescriptions and/or over the counter medications.
