A patient is never turned away from the University Eye Center regardless of their insurance or ability to pay whether they need a comprehensive exam or advanced care. With an average of nearly 70,000 patient encounters on site each year, we see everyone from infants to the elderly providing approximately $400,000 in free & discounted care.
Your financial support directed to patient care allows us to help an even greater number of people.
