Vision Test, Insurance, and Research Info

Vision test insurance researchList of insurance plans we accept  We accept a wide variety of plans that vary in their coverage for your vision test, eyeglasses or contact lenses, and medical eye care.

Vision Care Product Links We’ve prepared some links for products that we at times ask patients to use, but don’t inventory in our office.  These links are not meant to be a recommendation for any product, as our recommendations are always tailored to a specific patient and we generally don’t know what will be the best for each patient until after their vision test and comprehensive eye exam.  They’re just intended to be an easy way for patients at our office to find some specific products.

Guide to Evidence Based Medicine This is a guide prepared by Dr. Adelman outlining some of the questions to think about when discussing the results of your vision test and eye exam.

Information on Interpreting Medical Statistics This guide goes a little further in discussing some of the aspects of statistics that are important to studies involving your ocular and systemic health.

Making sense of the titles Optometrist, Ophthalmologist, and Optician We know that all of these folks have titles that begin with the letter “O” and they do something related to the vision test, eye health, and visual correction, but sometimes it’s tough to remember which is which.  This guide to Optometrists, Ophthalmologists, and Opticians will help you keep them straight.

About Pupillary Distance Measurement Pupillary measurement is one of the measurements necessary in fitting glasses that it taken by an optician after your vision test and ocular health examination are completed by the optometrist or ophthalmologist.  We will gladly take this measurement for you if you want to get your glasses elsewhere, but it’s important to know that it is only one of five measurement that need to be taken for glasses, so we’ve created this guide to help folks understand why we feel strongly that, after we’ve worked our hardest to get you the most accurate and comfortable prescription possible, you are able to turn that prescription into glasses that reflect the precision of your prescription as prepared by the doctor.

Notice of Privacy Practices Here’s our privacy notice regarding how we handle the personal information created during your vision test and exam.  Not exciting reading, but important.

Reviews Our highest compliment is when you refer folks to our office, online or off.
