COVID-19 Guidelines
At Sacramento Optometric Group we are continuing to provide excellent eyecare with some updates to our policies to ensure everyone’s health and safety.
During this time it is imperative that you stay at home and reschedule your appointment if you are experiencing any symptoms including a fever over 100.4 degrees, cough, difficulty breathing, sore throat, severe fatigue, OR if you or a family member have had contact with another person with confirmed COVID-19 within the past 14 days.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the safety and well-being of our patients, staff and doctors is our first priority. Our team will continue to go above and beyond the expectations for optometry practices so that everyone who enters our practice will feel safe. We are sure that you are well aware of the concerns about COVID-19, and we would like you to know the steps we are taking.
NEW POLICIES
