Contact Lens Service Fees
Dear Valued Patient:
We wanted to take a moment to inform you about an update to our services at Cambridge Optometry, which will take effect on July 1st, 2024. After careful consideration and review, we have decided to introduce a separate fee, ranging from $33 to $275, for contact evaluation and fitting services. We understand that, for our contact lens-wearing patients, this change may come as a surprise, and we want to ensure that you understand the reasons behind it.
Vision plans like VSP and Eyemed view contact lens evaluation and fitting as an additional add-on service separate from the routine yearly exam. In the past, we’ve waived contact lens service fees, but like other providers in the area, we need to charge for this added service.
As your dedicated optometry team, our top priority is always to provide you with the highest standard of care and service. In order to continue delivering this level of care, we have implemented contact lens service fees to cover the time, expertise, and resources required for contact lens evaluations and fittings.
Please note that this fee reflects the value we place on your comfort, safety, and optimal vision when using contact lenses. It allows us to invest in advanced technologies and ongoing training, ensuring we stay at the forefront of eye care practices for your benefit. We understand that changes in fees can raise questions, and we are here to address any concerns you may have. Our team is committed to providing transparent information and assisting you in any way we can.
We deeply appreciate your understanding and continued trust in us as your eye care providers. Your trust is the cornerstone of our practice, and we look forward to continuing to meet your eye care needs with the same dedication and commitment.
Warm regards,
Ben Threlkeld, O.D. Cindy Threlkeld, O.D. Matt Snider, O.D.
