Our Urgent Eye Care service provides timely evaluation and management of eye emergencies. If you have an eye problem that cannot wait for a routine appointment, we are here to assist and ensure you receive the care you need as quickly as possible. Please note that wait times may vary depending on the volume and severity of cases.

​

What We Treat​

We care for a wide range of urgent eye concerns, including injuries, sudden changes in vision, painful eye conditions, and other issues that require prompt attention to protect your sight. If your symptoms feel serious or are rapidly worsening, you should seek care immediately.​

​

What to Expect During Your Visit​

While we do our best to see patients as quickly as possible, urgent care visits are prioritized based on medical need. This means that some patients may be seen sooner depending on the nature of their condition. Calling ahead is recommended, though immediate appointment availability cannot always be guaranteed.​

If we are unable to provide the care you need at that time, we may guide you to your primary care provider, another appropriate specialist, or a nearby emergency department to ensure you receive timely treatment.​

Non‑Emergency Needs​

Eyewear repairs, routine adjustments, glasses, contact lenses, and other non‑urgent services should bescheduled as standard appointments. These are not handled through urgent care.​
