Terms & Conditions
The terms that apply to using our website and services
Last updated: June 2026
Welcome to the Athena Eye & Glaucoma website. By browsing this site or using any of the forms and tools we provide, you’re agreeing to the terms laid out below. We’ve tried to keep this as straightforward as possible — if anything doesn’t make sense, feel free to ask us directly.
About This Website
This website is provided by Athena Eye & Glaucoma to give you general information about our practice, our services, and Dr. Roma Patel. It also allows you to request appointments and get in touch with our team. We do our best to keep the information here accurate and up to date, but it’s provided for general guidance only and shouldn’t be treated as a substitute for an actual consultation with one of our doctors.
Not a Substitute for Medical Advice: Nothing on this website — including descriptions of procedures, symptoms, or treatments — is intended to diagnose, treat, or replace professional medical advice. Every patient’s eyes and circumstances are different. If you have a concern about your vision or eye health, please book a consultation rather than relying on general information found online, here or anywhere else.
Appointment Requests
When you submit an appointment request through this site, you’re sending us an enquiry — it isn’t a confirmed booking until our team has been in touch to verify a time that works for both you and the practice. We’ll typically respond within one to two business days. If your situation is urgent, please don’t wait on a web form — call our office directly or seek appropriate emergency care.
Using This Website Responsibly
You’re welcome to browse and use this site for personal, non-commercial purposes — to learn about our services, read up on procedures, or get in touch with us. We ask that you don’t:
- Copy, reproduce, or republish content from this site without our permission
- Attempt to interfere with how the website functions or its security
- Use any part of this site for unlawful purposes or to impersonate someone else
- Submit false or misleading information through our contact or appointment forms
Content & Ownership
The text, images, logo, and overall design of this website belong to Athena Eye & Glaucoma, unless otherwise noted. You’re welcome to share a link to our site or mention us by name, but please don’t copy our content onto another website or use our branding without checking with us first.
Links to Other Websites
From time to time, this site may link out to other websites — for instance, a patient portal or a reference resource. We don’t control those external sites and aren’t responsible for their content or how they handle your information. We’d recommend reviewing the terms and privacy practices of any third-party site you visit.
Limitation of Liability
We work hard to keep this website accurate and functioning well, but we can’t guarantee it will always be free of errors or interruptions. Athena Eye & Glaucoma isn’t liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of this website, to the extent permitted by law. This doesn’t affect any rights you have as a patient under applicable healthcare regulations.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these terms occasionally — for example, as our services or the website itself evolve. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date. Continuing to use the site after changes are posted means you accept the revised terms.
Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of the state in which Athena Eye & Glaucoma operates. Any disputes relating to this website or these terms will be handled in accordance with those laws.
