| Patients arriving to Dr. Balyeat's office the day of an examination should anticipate having both eyes dilated. This will blur vision for about 4 to 5 hours (possibly longer). Ideally, patients should come with a friend or relative who can drive them home and be present with them, if desired, in the examination rooms. From the time of check-in, to preliminary examination by the ophthalmic technicians, to examination and possible in-office testing, and to check-out, you may reasonably expect to spend up to 90 minutes, (possibly longer depending on the complexity of your problem) in Dr. Balyeat's office. Since Dr. Balyeat works into his schedule emergency patients referred by other physicians, you may experience a delay in the start of your examination. Dr. Balyeat and his staff apologize in advance for any inconvenience or anxiety that such delays may create. |
