As recommended by the CDC:
"It is critical to emphasize that maintaining 6-feet social distancing remains important to slowing the spread of the virus. CDC is additionally advising the use of simple cloth face coverings to slow the spread of the virus and help people who may have the virus and do not know it from transmitting it to others. Cloth face coverings fashioned from household items or made at home from common materials at low cost can be used as an additional, voluntary public health measure."
Please wear a mask when entering our office.
We have options for your care.

We want to ensure you of all the precautions Hudson Valley Eye Doctor is taking regarding the impact of the COVID-19 in our area. As usual, we’ve been disinfecting our physical spaces and encouraging our staff to practice safe, healthy hygiene for their own sake as well as the health and well-being of our patients and visitors. As an extra step we have installed easy access hand sanitizers for our patients’ and staffs’ convenience. Our disinfecting process has included UV-c light disinfection, and Air Purifiers in each space with HEPA filters and UV-c air purifiers. Our doctors and staff have plans in place for such a situation, and we continue to refine and improve them based on the best guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as well as our local and state health departments. When you come to visit us at this time, we appreciate you practicing the same healthy guidelines we’re encouraging our staff to help prevent the spread of respiratory illnesses. For a complete list, please visit the CDC website.
We have asked our staff not to share pens, shake hands and to follow the healthy guidelines and ask you to do the same.
