We are pleased to offer competitively priced eyeglasses for purchase, as well as Medicaid and Denali KidCare eyeglasses. Cosmetic contact lens exams and fittings are available for adults who are good candidates for this kind of vision correction. We are currently only able to offer contact lens refits. Competitively priced contact lenses may be purchased through the TCC Eye Clinic. If vision correction is needed for driving, school or other occupational and safety reasons, back-up glasses are required in addition to contact lenses.

Periodically the eye doctor and staff will travel to many of the TCC villages to provide eye clinic services. At this time, contact lens services are not available in our villages. If you would like to know when our Eye Clinic staff may be traveling to your area, please contact the Eye Clinic.
