Preparing for your eye consultation
A few simple steps save time and allow a more complete assessment: here is what is useful to prepare before your appointment.
What to bring
- French health insurance card (Carte Vitale), supplementary health insurance card (carte de mutuelle), identity document.
- Your current glasses (and your contact lenses or their case if you wear them).
- Your previous glasses prescriptions, reports and imaging examinations.
- A list of your current medicines and eye drops, and your medical history (diabetes, high blood pressure, allergies).
The consultation
Depending on the reason for your visit, you may have an examination with the orthoptist before seeing the doctor: vision measurement, eye pressure, imaging examinations. The duration varies; allow extra time.
If the pupil needs to be dilated
A fundus examination sometimes requires drops to dilate the pupil: blurred near vision and glare for several hours. Bring sunglasses and, if possible, arrange not to drive.
Contact lenses
If you wear contact lenses, remove them according to the instructions received before the consultation and bring your glasses.

Frequently asked questions
How long is the wait for an appointment?
It depends on the doctor and the reason for the appointment. For an emergency (sudden vision loss, pain, injury), call the reception desk.
Can I come without a prescription?
Not necessarily for a first examination. If another doctor has referred you, please let us know by email (contact@annecy-ophtalmo.fr) or telephone (04 50 23 03 23), so that we can offer an appointment within the most appropriate timeframe.
Are children seen?
Yes, see our paediatric ophthalmology page.
