The Tyler Junior College Vision Care Clinic will be open to the public during February and March, offering eye exams for $70 as well as eyeglasses at a discounted rate.
The clinic serves as a valuable learning tool for TJC ophthalmic medical assisting students pursuing certification for careers in the vision care industry. Upon graduation, they may work as assistants in optometrists’ or ophthalmologists’ offices or as opticians who fill prescriptions for eyeglasses and contact lenses.
TJC Vision Clinic hours are 1-4 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays, Feb. 4-March 13. The clinic is in Room 138 on the first floor of Rogers Nursing and Health Sciences Center, located at 1200 E. Fifth Street, on the TJC central campus.
Eye exams are available 12:45-3 p.m. Thursdays, by appointment only, with optometrist Dr. Bryan Frazier performing the eye exams and TJC students assisting with patient assessments and exams.
