A business is required to let DMV know when any of the above information changes. These updates must be requested by the primary or secondary contact. For changes to user and/or contact information, a contact can update information without DMV intervention in Enrollment, Update Your Enrollment. All other updates including adding/removing providers and changing business information can be requested on that page but will be sent to DMV for review. Updates to provider and business information must be submitted to DMV for review.
Yes. You can search by ZIP Code [1] for businesses enrolled as providers in the DMV Online Vision Registry.
Eye test charts, Vision Guidelines and Snellen Procedures will be mailed to every business that joins the Registry (except if the business only enrolls providers who are optometrists or ophthalmologists) and a Quick Start Guide and Provider Log will be e-mailed to the business' designated primary and secondary contacts at enrollment. There is also a dedicated e-mail mailbox set up to answer questions submitted by a businesses' primary or secondary contact ([email protected] [2] ).
No. If a customer cannot meet the standards of the vision screening test, if they are wearing telescopic lenses, or only possess dark colored corrective lenses (dark glasses), they must be directed to their eye test provider and their results cannot be entered in the Vision Registry.
If DMV customers renew their licenses using an online, mail-in or in-person process and they have been tested by a provider in the Registry, DMV will search the customer's record for those vision results. If the results are not there, the customer cannot renew and will be instructed to contact you. Because of this, DMV requires that results be entered within 24 hours of the test although entering them immediately after the test is ideal.
When a result is entered, the user will have an opportunity to review the data before it is submitted to DMV. Users can also retrieve what they submitted for the current day and edit if necessary. If the error is discovered after the current day, an e-mail must be sent to [email protected] [2] by the primary or secondary contact to report the error.
No, an error message will display and a user will be notified that the result has already been entered.
DMV will be as prompt as possible with inquiries submitted by primary and secondary contacts at [email protected] [2] . Be aware that Vision Registry staff is available during regular New York State business hours (8:30am-4:30pm EST, Monday-Friday, excluding State holidays).
Primary or secondary contacts can request a history report that retrieves results given by all users in that business for any date range of 31 days or less. No edits will be allowed.
