Covid-Safe Vision and Eye Care in Bellevue, Washington: Bellevue Vision Clinic

Bellevue Vision Clinic has been recommended as a Covid-safe provider of optometrist services and eye care in Bellevue, Washington. The person who recommended Bellevue Vision Clinic noted that “I’ve gone there for years with my dry eye syndrome. They’ve been the only office I could find that was able to help at all.”

They went on to say that “I had an appointment there last week. I checked in early and then waited outside and said I’d come in at my appointment time. They came out to get me (early) and when I mentioned I was immune compromised the tech double sanitized the equipment and asked if there was anything else she could do to make me more comfortable. I said I’d love a room with an air purifier and she took me to the first room, then offered to sanitize anything I’d like,” adding that “They are all still wearing masks, it’s still mandated here in medical offices. My only hesitation is that they were surgical masks, but all I could see were worn correctly.”

In addition, Bellevue Vision has a page devoted to their Covid-19 precautions which says “Our goal is to provide exceptional patient care in a caring and safe environment!
