    Default No-cost Eye Exams from EyeCare America



    EyeCare America is a program by the American Academy of Ophthalmology. EyeCare America offers medical eye exams by an ophthalmologist, often at no out-of-pocket cost, as well as free or discounted medication through a drug discount card.

    There are two programs:

    • 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.
    • 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).


    See if you are eligible for one of these programs.

    Seniors Program:

    • U.S. citizen or legal resident
    • Age 65 or older
    • Not belong to an HMO or have eye care benefits through the VA
    • Not seen an ophthalmologist in three or more years


    Glaucoma Program:

    • U.S. citizen or legal resident
    • Not belong to an HMO or have eye care benefits through the VA
    • Not had an eye exam in 12 months or more
    • At increased risk for glaucoma, determined by your age, race and family history


    SERVICES THAT ARE NOT COVERED

    • Additional services necessary for your care such as, hospitals, surgical facilities, anesthesiologists and medications, are the patient's responsibility and beyond the scope of EyeCare America services. The ophthalmologist is a volunteer who agrees to provide only services within these program guidelines.


    EYEGLASSES ARE NOT COVERED.

    • EyeCare America provides medical eye care, only. The program does NOT provide eyeglass prescriptions or cover the cost of eye glasses.
