    What happens after I submit?

    You receive a reference and, if the e-mail service is active, an acknowledgement. The practice comes back to you with a first reading and the proposed next step.

    Are my photographs safe?

    They are stored in a non-public space and used only for your file.

    I do not have good-quality photos: may I still send?

    Yes, send what you have; the practice may ask for additional views.
