Emergency Eyecare
After Hour Emergencies
Call (818) 846-9999 at any time if you have an eye-related emergency. After 5:30 p.m. and on weekends, our telephone is handled by an answering service. When you call the service will either contact your doctor, so that he can respond to you, or put you in contact with the ophthalmologist who is on call.
I had an emergency: it was late night I called the office and got the doctor on call…I explained my problem, he asked me to meet him at the office. The next day I got a call to see how I was doing by one of the staff. I am grateful for their care, great office to go and get your eyes checked.
