I have not gone since 6 months before the pandemic. I also have not gone to my eye doctors. I am going to have to go soon to them. I was not ok with them using the same bottles of drops to dilate and do other stuff pre exam for all the patients. This should not be done pre pandemic either - separate single dose eye drops are available and can be used instead.
