Pacific University’s Eye Van is coming to Vancouver to provide free vision screenings and comprehensive pediatric eye exams.
An optometrist and university optometry students will provide exams from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday at MacArthur Head Start, 5300 MacArthur Blvd. Appointments are required. To make an appointment, contact Deanna Russell at 360-567-2758 or deanna.russell@eocfwa.org.
Patients should expect exams to take 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Comprehensive eye exams will include dilation. Prescriptions for glasses will be ordered the day of the exam and will be dispensed for free by an optician on site.
Those who need more extensive evaluations will be given referrals for follow-up care.
