We know your life, and the lives of your loved ones, have been affected by the COVID-19 outbreak. During this time, it is more crucial than ever that you can take care of yourself and your family. Georgia Eye Institute has one simple message:

We want to make sure all of our patients know that Georgia Eye Institute providers are available for in-person appointments, testing and treatments. We have been working hard to adjust our approach to be able to provide excellent care to all of our patients through this pandemic.

It is understandable that you may have concerns about coming to a doctor’s office right now – but it is important not to put your healthcare needs on hold. We are here to take care of all of our patients. We want to answer your questions, let you know what to expect when you visit our office and how you can use telehealth.

Please do not risk your health by delaying care. Our practice is taking every possible precaution to make sure patients are still able to access the same safe, high-quality care that our patients expect. Here is what we are doing to reduce exposure:

·         All Georgia Eye Institute providers and staff wear masks and other appropriate protective equipment

·         All patients are screened for COVID-19 symptoms

·         All providers and staff are screened for COVID-19 symptoms before entering the office

·         Social distancing measures will be enforced if there are patients in waiting areas

·         Persons accompanying the patient are prohibited unless they are necessary for an aspect of patient care

·         All of our offices are cleaned and sanitized throughout the day

·         We are abiding by local and state public health recommendations

Are you still offering telehealth?
Yes. Telehealth is a good option for some of our patients. If you are not sure whether you need an in-office or a telehealth visit, you can contact our office for assistance.

We unfortunately had to cancel and reschedule many visits and procedures. We have been closely monitoring all patients whom we had to cancel and are making sure to reschedule these procedures before we think there may be an adverse outcome due to the delay. We thank you for your patience and understanding if you are one of those patients. Please contact us to discuss the timing of your procedure in greater detail.

What is the best way to make an appointment?

·         Call our office at (912)354-4800 for scheduling assistance

We are honored to be a part of your care and are here for you. We will get through these difficult times together and look forward to being able to open our doors more fully and seeing you in person again. Please stay in touch as you need us.

Our best to you and your loved ones,
Georgia Eye Institute
