First Sight Vision Care has been busy over the last week setting up new processes to better serve you during this difficult time. We want you to know that these new processes will give you better access to care while we adhere to social distancing guidelines. In the event you should develop an eye emergency, we ask you call our office where we can provide you with solutions to help remedy your eye problem. Should you need an eye surgeon, we have close relationships with many in the area and we will get you seen in the most efficient manner.
