How StyeGuy Works

General Questions

Who is providing my consultation?

Dr. Dan Landmann is a board-certified New Jersey, New York and Connecticut based Ophthalmologist. He is sub-specialized in oculoplastic Surgery, which focuses on cosmetic & reconstructive surgery of the upper and lower eyelids as well as the face. Dr. Landmann received his undergraduate and medical degrees from Tufts University. He also attended graduate school in Electrical Engineering, which gave him the entrepreneurial spirit and knowledge to start this website. Dr. Landmann did both his residency in Ophthalmology and fellowship in Oculoplastic, Cosmetic & Reconstructive Surgery at Tufts Medical Center in Boston, Massachusetts. This is one of the most prestigious Ophthalmology programs in the country, and is known for hands-on patient care. He now runs his own practice in Maywood, NJ.

Does StyeGuy replace an in person medical consult?

In most cases, StyeGuy will be able to provide a treatment plan that works for you. However, there may be some cases that are not easily treated and will require the attention of a traditional eye doctor consultation.

What is StyeGuy?

StyeGuy is a secure telemedicine platform that connects people with a board-certified ophthalmologist. StyeGuy enables you to receive a private consultation without needing to make an appointment, travel to a doctor’s office or wait around for the doctor to come to you. Our doctor uses your information and photos to provide you with a personalized Stye Treatment advice and if necessary, a prescription Antibiotic or Steroid will be called right into your pharmacy.

Payment

Is my credit card information secure?

Of course! StyeGuy uses a secure third party system to process any payments. We do not store your credit card information.

Does StyeGuy accept my medical insurance?

StyeGuy services are not submitted to your health coverage plan and are only provided with the service fee. However, your insurance can be used for any prescriptions that are called in.

How and when do I pay?

StyeGuy accepts all major credit cards (Visa, Discover, AMEX, or Mastercard).

What is the cost for the service?

The cost to submit a new case is $50. This fee includes a photo and questionnaire consultation with our doctor. A follow-up consultation, treatment products and other services can be purchased separately.

Prescriptions

What happens if my prescription runs out?

If your condition persists after your prescription runs out, then it is best to seek an in-person appointment to make sure everything is healing well.

Can I get a prescription?

Although not all treatment plans will include a prescription, if your condition requires a prescription, then one will be provided to you at your preferred pharmacy.

Restrictions

In what states is StyeGuy’s service available?

StyeGuy can give a consultation to anyone in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. New states are being added all the time.

Can I get a consultation from StyeGuy for other eye problems?

StyeGuy will work mainly with eyelid conditions such as styes, blepharitis, and lid lesions. For problems concerning vision or the eye itself, it is recommended you see an ophthalmologist.
