The Illinois Association of Ophthalmology encourages people to call the EyeCare America Seniors EyeCare Program, which offers eye exams at no out-of-pocket cost to seniors who are without an ophthalmologist (a medical eye doctor). To see if you, a loved one or a friend, 65 and older, are eligible to receive a referral for an eye exam and care, call (800) 222-EYES (3937). The EyeCare America help line operates 24 hours a day, everyday, year-round. |
