New Patient Appointments

Welcome!  If you’re new, or if it’s been more than 35 months since your last exam at our office, this is the place to start. In order to provide the best quality eye exam and a visit that goes smoothly, stays on schedule, and minimizes surprises, we require all new patients (or those re-establishing care) to complete our registration forms prior to booking. We have some policies that may differ from other offices you’ve visited. Please review this summary of key policies, then scroll to register and request an appointment. Our team will reach out with estimated costs and available appointment slots once we’ve reviewed your information.

We recommend reviewing our Insurance list prior to registering, to ensure we are in-network with your plan.

Annual Retinal Photos Required for All Adults

  • Dr. Vesper takes pride in providing thorough eye examinations for all his patients. To do this, he requires retinal photos be taken annually on every adult patient so he can confidently see, record and track the health of your eyes and any changes over time. Please plan on paying $39.00 out of pocket for this service, as it is usually NOT covered by insurance.  This service CANNOT be waived at our practice.
  • Please be prepared for your visit to be billed to either your vision plan or your medical plan.  See our Insurance page for a list of the plans we take.
Medical vs. Routine Vision Exams

  • All acute medical visits must be billed to medical insurance, rather than vision insurance
  • MEC will bill a vision exam to vision insurance if you ONLY have refractive problems with your eyes, and no medical eye problems, history of eye surgery, or systemic illnesses that may impact the eye. If a relevant medical diagnosis is found, then we will no longer bill vision insurance
  • MEC will bill your medical insurance if you have eye problems or diagnoses that are NOT refractive in nature, or if you have certain systemic medical conditions.
  • For  more information, see our Vision Exams page
Canceling or Rescheduling

If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, MEC requires 72-hours notice, otherwise you will be charged with a $50.00 late-cancellation/no-show fee in order to be able to continue scheduling advance appointments.

No Unaccompanied Minors

Although we love children, unaccompanied minors will not be able to complete an exam without a parent or legal guardian who can make medical decisions on their behalf.

We Do Not Prescribe Vuity Eye Drops

If you are interested in Vuity drops, we are not the right place for you. Dr. Vesper does not prescribe Vuity.
