EyeCare America

The Seniors Program connects eligible seniors 65 and older with local volunteer ophthalmologists who provide a medical eye exam often at no out-of-pocket cost, and up to one year of followup care for any condition diagnosed during the initial exam, for the physician services. To qualify you must not belong to an HMO or have eye care benefits through the VA and have not seen an ophthalmologist in three or more years.

The Glaucoma Program provides a glaucoma eye exam at no cost to those who are eligible and uninsured. Those who are eligible and insured are billed normal office procedure, and responsible for any co-payments. (This is an awareness program to provide a baseline glaucoma eye exam to those who may not be aware they are at increased risk). Eligible persons must not belong to an HMO or have eye care benefits through the VA, not had an eye exam in 12 months or more, and be at increased risk for glaucoma, determined by your age, race and family history.
