Website Terms of Use

Effective date: September 18, 2026

These Website Terms of Use apply to the public website operated by Park Slope Eye Optometric PLLC, doing business as Park Slope Eye. By using this website, you agree to use it lawfully and in a manner consistent with the then-current terms.

General information, not individualized medical advice

The website provides general information about Park Slope Eye, eye care, services, products, policies, fees, insurance, and educational topics. Website content is not a diagnosis, treatment plan, prescription, or substitute for an examination by a qualified health care professional who can evaluate your individual circumstances.

Reading this website, sending a general inquiry, or following a link does not by itself establish a doctor-patient relationship. A professional relationship is established through the applicable clinical and administrative processes of the practice.

Emergencies and urgent concerns

This website and its routine online scheduler are not emergency services and are not monitored continuously for urgent medical concerns. If you believe you have an emergency, seek emergency medical care promptly. For urgent but non-emergency eye concerns, follow the instructions on our Urgent & Emergency Eye Guidance page.

Appointments and availability

Online scheduling is provided through an external scheduling service. Appointment availability displayed by that service may change. Submitting or selecting an appointment through an external service is subject to that service’s operation and to Park Slope Eye’s appointment policies.

Fees, insurance, products, and other changeable information

Park Slope Eye works to keep its website accurate and current, but fees, insurance participation, benefits, hours, product availability, manufacturer rebates, shipping charges, staffing, and other operational details can change. Insurance participation does not guarantee that a specific service is covered, and final benefits are determined by the applicable plan. When current cost or coverage is important to your decision, please review our Insurance, Fees & FAQs page and contact the practice when clarification is needed.

Educational content

Eye-health articles and educational pages are written for general patient education. Medical knowledge and product options evolve, and older articles may retain their original publication dates for historical transparency even when they have later been reviewed or updated. Educational content should not be used to self-diagnose an urgent or potentially serious condition.

Third-party websites and services

The website may link to external services, including online scheduling, maps, insurer or manufacturer resources, review platforms, and other third-party websites. A link does not mean Park Slope Eye controls the external service, its availability, security, content, or privacy practices. Your use of a third-party service is also subject to that service’s own terms and policies.

Intellectual property

Unless otherwise indicated, the text, design, branding, and original materials on this website are owned by or licensed to Park Slope Eye and may be protected by copyright, trademark, or other laws. You may view, print, or save reasonable portions for personal, noncommercial use. Republishing substantial website content or using Park Slope Eye branding in a way that suggests endorsement or affiliation requires permission unless otherwise permitted by law.

Acceptable use

You may not use the website to interfere with its operation, attempt unauthorized access, introduce malicious code, impersonate another person, violate another person’s rights, or use automated activity in a way that materially disrupts the service.

Website availability and warranties

Park Slope Eye may change, suspend, correct, or remove website content when appropriate. Although we work to provide a reliable and accurate site, the website is provided on an “as available” basis and may occasionally contain errors, become temporarily unavailable, or link to information outside our control. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Park Slope Eye does not guarantee uninterrupted availability or that every website statement will remain current indefinitely.

Limitation of responsibility

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Park Slope Eye is not responsible for losses caused solely by reliance on general website content instead of obtaining appropriate professional care, by the operation of third-party services outside Park Slope Eye’s control, or by interruptions or technical conditions inherent in internet services. Nothing in these terms limits any right or responsibility that cannot lawfully be limited.

Privacy

Use of the production website is also subject to our Website Privacy Policy. Protected health information handled by the practice is governed separately by Park Slope Eye’s HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices.

Governing law

These website terms are intended to be governed by the laws applicable to Park Slope Eye in the State of New York and applicable federal law, without creating a waiver of rights that cannot legally be waived.
