The team is committed to providing the highest level of care in a nurturing and child friendly environment. For new patients and annual exams, visits typically last 60-90 minutes to accommodate the needs of the child. Dilation is required for all new pediatric patients and those returning for annual exams to examine the health of structures inside the eye, such as the optic nerve and retina, and to perform a refraction. This diagnostic procedure determines the eye’s focusing power to identify nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism, and helps diagnose risk factors for amblyopia and strabismus. The dilating eye drops are safe even for the youngest infants, with pupil dilation generally lasting 24-48 hours. The practice also fits children age 10 and older for contact lenses, requiring a separate appointment for fitting and training before a first-time prescription is dispensed.

Medical providers are available 24 hours a day in case of emergency. In case of an after hours emergency, patients can call the office at (973) 540-8814 and follow the prompts to page a provider on call. After-hours calls are intended for urgent medical issues only, and routine medication refills or prescription requests will not be addressed via pager. In the event of a life threatening emergency, patients are instructed to call 911. The office is open Monday through Friday, and daily schedules are subject to change, so patients are encouraged to call to confirm office hours. Many insurance companies require a prior referral from a primary care physician for specialist visits, so patients are advised to check with their insurance company to determine whether a referral is required prior to their visit.
