OUR DEPARTMENT
Welcome to the Eye Care Department. We provide a full range of eye health care services including eye exams, urgent eye care appointments, surgical procedures and screening for diabetic patients. In addition, we offer educational materials/seminars and specialty tests.
OUR STAFF
We offer a coordinated team approach to eye care. Our staff includes Ophthalmologists (MD), Optometrists (OD), Opticians, Technicians, Advice Nurses and support staff. You can call our receptionists to make an appointment, get a prescription refill, leave a message, or talk to an advice nurse.
In the Ophthalmology Department, appointments are made in several ways: on referral from a primary care provider or other providers, or as follow up to previous visits or surgeries; and, for new Kaiser Health Plan members, with a referral from outside Optometry or Ophthalmology providers. New Kaiser members can see Optometry first. If you do not already have a referral from your primary care provider, please call our appointment/advice line at (650) 742-2100 to make an appointment with a general practitioner. To make an appointment in our sub-specialty department, please call (650) 301-5800.

An emergency medical condition is a medical or psychiatric condition that manifests itself by acute symptoms of sufficient severity (including severe pain) such that you could reasonably expect the absence of immediate medical attention to result in any of the following: serious jeopardy to your health, serious impairment to your bodily functions, or serious dysfunction of any bodily organ or part. An emergency medical condition is also "active labor," which means a labor when there is inadequate time for safe transfer to a Plan hospital (or designated hospital) before delivery or if a transfer poses a threat to the health of the member or unborn child.
