    Thank you for considering purchasing your eyewear from us. We truly appreciate your business and we do our best to make sure that your glasses will fulfill your needs. The following are our policies on eyewear:

    1. If your vision plan makes your glasses for our office, then you are subject to the vision plan's policies on cancellations, prescription changes, remakes, refunds, etc. and you will typically not be able to get glasses made elsewhere under your vision plan until you are eligible again for that benefit in 1 or 2 years.

    2.Please realize that it may take time to adapt to your new prescription, so you must try to wear your new glasses as much as possible for at least two weeks. If the vision seems strange when you pick them up, then take them home and put them on when you awaken

    tomorrow. If our practice makes your glasses, then we will remake the lenses once within 60 days of when you received them if you can't adapt to the prescription.

    3. All prescription glasses are custom made. Once the lenses are started at our lab, we will not cancel your order or refund your money. some patients have chosen a frame, but later decide that they don't like the frame after they receive their glasses. If we can Occasionally cancel the order for the lenses before they're started, then we will refund 90% of the total frame and lens purchase (We charge a 10% fee If you want to cancel the order after the lenses are started, then we do not provide refunds. Please make sure that you restocking are satisfied with your choice when your order is placed. We do not provide refunds for buyer's remorse (deciding after you selected your glasses that you no longer want to purchase them

    4. If you decide that you don't like the frame that you chose and the lenses have been started at our lab, we offer you the onetimeoption of having your lenses put into another color of the same size and brand of frame when available. The lenses can't otherwisebeused.We willoffer you a credit of 60% of the cost of your lenses if you wish to switch to another style of frame after the glasses are made by our lab.If the frame is in brand new condition, then we will provide a full credit toward the cost of another frame from us. The frame you are returning must be the same frame that you purchased from us and be in brand new condition or no credit will be given.

    5.Our staff does their best to calculate exactly how much you will owe for your glasses under your vision plan, but occasionally they will not be able to determine that exact amount until the claim has been processed by the vision plan or insurance. Please realize that you are responsible for any amounts indicated by your vision plan and you are financially liable for the entire cost of your glasses if your insurance declines payment for any reason.

    6. We will notify you at least twice when your glasses are ready for pickup. The full balance must be paid before you may take them home. If you do not pick them up within 45 days of the first notification, then the lenses will be removed and the frame will be resold and there is no refund. If your vision plan notifies us that you still owe a balance on the glasses even though you already have received the glasses, you will be notified of this bill and you agree to pay the balance within 30 days of notification.

    7. It takes significant time and expertise for our staff to make lens and frame recommendations to our customers, so if youneedorchoose tochange to a less expensive lens for any reason, we will remake your lenses once within 30 days, but you will not be refunded the

    difference in price and you must pay any frame cost above the 90% credited from the initial price of the frame, if you wish to change to

  • R&A REBUCK & ASSOCIATES EYE CARE

  • The following two tests are a vital part of a thorough professional eye examination, and are considered our standard of care. We pride ourselves in providing the utmost patient care so we are now requiring them for all comprehensive examinations.

    Optomap Retinal Scan We capture an extremely high-quality digital photo (of most patients) to see a wide view of the retina to evaluate the health of your eyes. It has enabled us to detect subtle problems that would have otherwise been missed. The pictures will be kept for comparison at future eye exams and we now require them at every comprehensive eye examination. It typically provides a much better view of the retina even if you are not dilated, but is not a substitution. Dilation is recommended every 2 or 3 years unless you are in a high-risk category (over age 60, diabetic, cataracts, lazy eye, poor vision, etc

    Ocular Coherence Tomography This takes a three-dimensional thickness scan of your retina and optic nerve to compare to a normal database and is very sensitive for detecting glaucoma and disease earlier.

    These are NOT COVERED BY ANY VISION OR MEDICAL PLAN and cost $50.

    Please be prepared to pay this fee at your appointment.

  • Rebuck & Associates Eye Care - Office Policies

    We want you to enjoy your visit with us and you should know that by being examined at our office, you agree to the following policies:

    1. If you want your examination to be billed to any type of coverage, then you must present your medical insurance and vision plan cards before we will treat you. If you do not, then we won't bill your insurance and you will have to pay in full on the date of service. We will not bill you later. If you are unable to pay on the date of service, then you must reschedule, unless it is a true ocular emergency. We do offer financing through Care Credit.

    2.Vision plans (Davis, Spectera, VSP, Eyemed, etc only cover healthy eye exams for nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and the need for reading glasses. If you have other eye conditions like cataracts, glaucoma, diabetes, red/pink eye, etc., then your vision plan will not be billed and it must be billed through your medical insurance or paid out of pocket. Your vision insurance will not be billed if your medical insurance denies your claim, except for the refraction/glasses testing charge.

    3. Glasses testing/refraction (if your examination is medical in nature) and contact lens evaluations are separate procedures, so both have additional and separate fees, which are not covered by some vision plans or medical insurance. If you desire to get a prescription for contact lenses, then you must have a contact lens evaluation. You have the right to decline the refraction or contact lens evaluation, but you will be unable to order glasses or contact lenses without a current prescription. You can't legally order contact lenses from a glasses prescription. If you are being fit with different contact lenses, then you must return in a timely manner so that your follow up visits are completed within 60 days after you receive your first contact lenses. After this period, you must pay for another fitting at full price.

    4.Co-pays must be paid on the date of your examination. If you can't pay your co-pay today, then you will have to reschedule. If we can verify that your medical coverage has an unmet deductible, then you will have to pay towards your deductible today and we will submit a claim to your insurance. After receiving the response from your insurance, we will notify you whether you owe any additional fees or

    5. All charges incurred are the financial responsibility of the patient, parent, or guardian regardless if the insurance covers any of the fees. Our staff may attempt to explain your benefits, but we are not insurance experts. You are responsible for knowing what your benefits cover, whether you need a referral and for obtaining a referral prior to your examination. We have to rely on insurance company information which may not be updated.

    6. Any balances remaining unpaid after 30 days will accrue 1.5% interest per month. Balances over 60 days may be taken to collections or court. You are responsible for all court costs. If you still don't pay, then this can be reported to credit agencies and this may constitute breach of contract, thus enabling cancellation of your insurance coverage.

    7. There may be a charge when requesting copies of your medical records and all balances must be paid before this information will be 

    8. You have a right to your eyeglass prescription and as a patient you will be provided with a copy. Local opticians generally do a good job of filling our prescriptions, but we have some concern with the use of eyeglass vendors over the internet. Fitting eyewear properly involves precise measurements such as PD/pupillary distance and segment height that an internet vendor cannot provide. We provide these measurements at no charge for patients purchasing eyewear from us. If you want these measurements to buy your glasses elsewhere, there will be a $40.00 charge. Payment of this fee entitles you to free adjustments and prescription verification for the glasses.
