Eye Myth Monday: If you cross your eyes, they'll stay that way.

Your eye muscles allow you to move your eyes in all directions. Looking left or right, up or down, won’t force them to remain in those positions, just as crossing the eyes won’t force them to stay that way. Crossed eyes may result from disease, uncorrected vision, or from muscle or nerve damage. (Source: American Academy of Ophthalmology)

Good Afternoon,

I want to take this time to announce that our office will be opening on May 18. We will be opening in phases consistent with the executive orders issued by Governor Mills on April 29 and the guidance of both the Maine CDC and the Maine Optometric Association.

We expect to be open on May 18, 2020. If you have an appointment scheduled prior to that time, please consider it canceled. We will be rescheduling patients, balancing their medical and routine needs when we reopen the office. We will be placing a higher priority on patients whose appointments were canceled first and have been waiting the longest.

We will continue to follow the strict protocol screening and distancing suggested by the CDC while also continuing the requirement that all patients and staff wear masks for the duration of the appointments. Temperatures will also be taken on patients and staff. Unfortunately, we are not allowing any visitors outside of patients at this time.

We appreciate your patience while we finalize our reopening plans and as always, we look forward to seeing you. The office will continue to be monitored remotely addressing your prescription needs, scheduling questions, and clinical concerns. If your need is urgent, please call Dr. Elkinson at 207-229-7626 and leave a detailed message. If your message is not returned within 30 minutes, please contact your local medical emergency facility.

Remember, we are all in this together. Stay safe.
