Always review the current plan booklet for up to date coverage information. There is a new plan booklet released each year.

Finding Vision Care

On- Campus

Vision care is not offered at the Student Health Center.

Off-Campus

The closest "on-campus" provider would be at the UCI Health Sciences campus at the Gavin Herbert Eye Institute. Visit their website for information and to schedule an appointment (Always confirm if they are in-network for the current insurance provider).

Other care providers can be found by using the current insurance provider's website (linked on SHC Vision Benefits site at the top of this page and below). Use the same link to see if your current provider is in-network.

*For non-UC SHIP providers, please reference your own provider's recommendations for finding provider and for coverage information.
