Beyond Vision LNK Announces Availability of Virtual Eye Consultations

Optometrist Dr. Carla Ericksen of Beyond Vision LNK (www.beyondvisionlnk.com) has announced immediate availability of virtual eye consultations, enabling patients to receive eye care and reduce undue stress on ERs and urgent care facilities, decreasing exposure from uncontained viruses, and saving supplies for frontline workers.

“Due to coronavirus we stopped eye exams with no complaints; however, we now offer virtual consultations for renewal of urgent prescriptions and urgent eye care issues. Urgent cases constitute incidents including pain; traumatic eye injury; foreign body such as metal, wood, glass, or chemical burn; sudden loss of vision; or extreme light sensitivity,” said Dr. Ericksen.

Virtual eye consultation is a new service driven by the uncertainty of coronavirus spread and increased overload to the health care system. Beyond Vision LNK’s commitment to deliver the best direct care and assist other health professionals and rural areas makes this a necessary change in health delivery.

Beyond Vision LNK strives to give continued care and access to all patients and is the first direct care optometry location in Lincoln. The company offers a wide range of eye services to maintain good ocular health for you now and as you age. Schedule a virtual appointment by calling (402) 261-8699.
