**What services does OptiHealth Optometry offer?**

OptiHealth Optometry provides comprehensive medical eye care with a focus on prevention, early detection, and patient education. Our services include comprehensive eye exams, medical eye care such as glaucoma, cataracts, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), diabetic eye disease screening, and dry eye disease management. We also specialize in contact lens fittings and offer in-office dry eye procedures like Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT), Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), and Radiofrequency (RF). Please note that we do not offer glasses/eyewear sales.

**Can I use my insurance with OptiHealth Optometry?**

Our practice is out-of-network with all vision insurance plans, but we are in-network with medical insurance. The type of visit, whether "vision" or "medical", typically determines whether insurance coverage applies. Vision usually covers routine eye exams and contact lens exams. Medical typically applies to the evaluation, treatment, and monitoring of ocular conditions such as glaucoma, cataracts, AMD, and dry eye disease. We encourage patients to confirm benefits with their insurer.

**What financing options does OptiHealth Optometry provide?**

We offer financing through Cherry, a third-party financing option. Cherry can be applied to dry eye procedures, contact lens purchases, and in some cases, eye exams. Approval and terms depend on Cherry and the selected plan. Please note that we do not guarantee approval or quote exact APR/payment amounts.

**Does OptiHealth Optometry offer treatment for dry eye disease?**

Yes, OptiHealth Optometry specializes in the evaluation and management of dry eye disease. We offer in-office procedures like Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT), often called "red light therapy" by patients, Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), and Radiofrequency (RF). The suitability of these treatments depends on individual evaluation results.
