Spinak Medical Eye Center

We are pleased to announce the official reopening of our office on June 1st for in-office appointments. To ensure the safety and health of all patients and staff, our office is following guidelines from public health authorities including the CDC and the American Academy of Ophthalmology.


Please note the following changes as part of our COVID-19 protocol:


General Office Visit Procedure

  2. Parking lot check in via cell phone from your car.

  3. Upon entry into the building, temperature screening with a non-contact thermometer and hand hygiene with provided sanitizer.

  4. Expedited testing and examination process to maximize efficient use of time during your visit.

  5. Expedited check out.

  6. Follow up appointments will be made over the telephone to limit face to face conversation and time in the building.

Patient Safety Measures

  1. Masks are REQUIRED for entry into the building. You are kindly asked to provide your own masks. Homemade coverings such as scarfs and bandanas are acceptable if you are not (or suspected to be) COVID-19 positive. Office staff and physicians will be wearing masks for all patient encounters as well.
