Dr. Harry Landrum, Optometric Physician
CONTACT LENS CARE AGREEMENT
Contact lenses are FDA class 1 medical devices that have the potential
for serious complications if not used and fitted properly. For that
reason, the standard of care and the requirements of the New Jersey
State Board of Optometry and the federal government require an annual
examination for the renewal of a contact lens prescription. In
addition to general eye health assessment, the doctor will assess
issues related to contacts such as abnormal blood vessel growth,
corneal damage, chronic inflammation, hygiene, discomfort and poor
surface compatibility, in addition to vision changes. The estimated
fee for these services range between $85 and $155. These fees will
cover contact lens related follow ups for a 30 day period. If you
cannot complete the fitting procedure in the allotted time due to
missed follow up appointments, there will be an additional $35 charge
per visit beyond the global time period. Additional fees for training
for insertion and removal of contact lenses is approximately $70 to
all new wearers.
By signing, I acknowledge that I understand the policies regarding the
fitting of contact lenses and agree to the associated fees. I
understand that these fees are an estimate and are subject to changes
based on the doctor's final assessment. I also understand that
improper usage of contact lenses as prescribed can lead to vision loss
and permanent eye damage. I understand that if an infection is
present, I will need to be treated under my medical insurance prior to
being refit with contact lenses.
