I hereby assign all vision and medical benefits to which I am entitled and any other plans to Dr. Paul Tachau and Associates of Accent on Vision. I hereby authorize said assignee to release all information necessary to secure the payment. I agree that I am responsible for my bill regardless of whether my insurance pays or denies my claim. I understand that there are no refunds for examinations/treatment services or material purchases including eyeglasses, and am aware that vision insurances do not cover medical or surgical treatment of eye injury or disease (allergy, dry eye, glaucoma, etc.) and that the reason for my visit today will dictate which services will be rendered and which payer will be billed. All co-pays and balances are due at check out on day of service (deductibles also apply), and balances older than 45 days may be subject to additional charges and interest. I am also acknowledging that I have reviewed Accent on Vision’s Notice of Privacy Practices.

Retinal Evaluation

Our doctors are concerned about retinal diseases such as macular degeneration, glaucoma, retinal detachments, and diabetic retinopathy; all of which can lead to partial loss of vision or blindness. Additionally, systemic diseases such as diabetes and high blood pressure can be detected with a retinal examination.

Eye exams with retinal evaluations can help safeguard both your eyesight and general health. Therefore, a retinal evaluation is advised annually.

The Optomap Digital Retinal Imaging allows us to thoroughly evaluate your internal eye health with dramatically improved precision that includes a depth in the retina not seen with regular dilation. The doctor strongly recommends that all patients have this procedure performed annually. It is especially important for people who have:

·  Headaches
·  Diabetes
·  High Blood Pressure
·  High Cholesterol / ·  Family history of Glaucoma, Macular Degeneration, and/or Blindness
·  Family history of Diabetes and/or High Blood Pressure

With an annual Optomap, our doctors can track your eye health for concerns, comparison, and treatments. Because Medical and Vision insurances do not pay for routine photos, there is a $39.00 fee for this procedure. The Optomap eliminates the need to be dilated with drops, in most cases. (Please advise staff if you have history of epilepsy.)

Visual field Testing can assist in early detection of diseases along the optic nerve pathway. Glaucoma and neurological conditions that cause damage to central and peripheral vision can be detected early in the disease process with this technology. We are committed to the prevention of eye diseases and want to stress that early detection is the key to long term health.

Please select your retinal evaluation option for today’s visit:

□ Optomap Digital Retinal Imaging ($39.00 + Tax, not covered by any insurance)

□ Optomap Digital Retinal Imaging AND Visual Field Testing ($49.00 + Tax, not covered by any insurance.)

□ I prefer to have my eyes dilated today. I understand that my vision will be slightly blurry and light sensitive for 3-4 hours after dilation. (No fee, covered by insurance.)

□ I do not want to have my eyes dilated or receive Optomap Digital Retinal Imaging services today. I understand that the potential for partial or total loss of vision may exist due to undetected eye disease. I therefore release Dr. Tachau and associates from any liability resulting from failure to diagnose or treat any eye condition due to the lack of diagnostic information, which could have been obtained by performing these tests.
