6. What fee structure does the practice maintain?
Our professional fees are fair and competitive with other eye care services in the community. We accept assignment from CIGNA, ANTHEM B/C, B/S of Maine, CHAMPUS/TRICARE, HARVARD PILGRIM, MACHIGONNE, MARTIN'S POINT, Davis Vision, EyeMed and VSP. We also accept Medicare and Mainecare/Primecare assignment and will assist you in receiving reimbursement from your insurance carrier if your coverage includes vision care.
Check with your insurance policy first before scheduling an eye examination to verify if a referral is needed from your primary care physician. The office bills for doctor visits only, not materials such as eyeglasses or contact lenses. A receipt will be submitted for reimbursement from your insurance carrier.
In addition, the office accepts VISA®, Mastercard® American Express and Discover for your added convenience. Senior citizens receive a 10% discount on all eyewear.
7. Why would I need a second pair of eyeglasses?
- Eyeglasses with special lenses to work on the computer.
- Eyeglasses with safety lenses to work around the yard or on your car.
- Eyeglasses with special lenses to play sports such as golf.
- Back-up eyeglasses should you wear contact lenses or loose your first pair.
- As a fashion statement: a unique pair to wear for dressy occasions/everyday.
8. I sometimes see specks in front of my eyes. Is this anything serious?
These specks, or floaters, are usually harmless and are seen by most of us from time to time, but it is a good idea to have them checked out by your eye care provider to be certain they aren't suggestive of a more serious condition.
9. Is laser vision correction a safe procedure?
This is a good topic to discuss with your eye care provider. He or she can explain the procedures as well as any safety concerns and can determine if you're a good candidate for the procedure.
