TOP QUESTIONS WE HEAR FROM PATIENTS
How long will my dilation last?
Using our standard dilation drops, dilation will last anywhere from 4-6 hours. Patients with lighter colored eyes could experience longer than this timeframe.
How long will it take to get my glasses?
Most glasses can be turned around in 7-10 business days. If there is any sort of delay, you will be notified by us.
How often should I get an eye exam?
Children should get an eye exam at ages 1, 3, before kindergarten, and every 2 years until 18 years old. It is recommended that adults 18+ get an eye exam every year.
Do you sell contact lenses?
We fit and sell all brands of contact lenses. If you have an outside prescription, bring it with you and we can order you a year supply of lenses!
Do I have to be dilated?
Dilation is included in performing a comprehensive eye exam so that overall eye health can be evaluated.
​
Can I drive with dilation?
You are able to drive after dilation. Sunglasses are recommended as you will be light sensitive. We will give you a temporary pair if you don't have your own!
I have an eye emergency. Should I call T.Spex?
Our doctors are specialized in treating emergent ocular issues. Often times emergency rooms and urgent cares are unable to properly assess eye emergencies since they do not have a slit lamp or other ocular diagnostic tools. Whether it is a red eye, new floaters, a scratch, or eye pain - give us a call and we will try to fit you in ASAP!
