If this is your first appointment with the Penn State Hershey Eye Center, your doctor will dilate your eyes by placing drops in them to open your pupils for better viewing of the back of the eye. Driving with fully dilated eyes may be uncomfortable. You may want to arrange for someone to drive you home.
- Please bring all of your current insurance information with you to your visit.
