Services
We provide complete vision and eye health examinations for glasses and contact lenses. After an initial examination in the general clinic service, patients who need glasses can have their prescriptions filled and certain eyeglass repairs made at Eyewear Optical. Those with special needs can be referred to one of our specialty clinics. Patients can also be referred directly to specialty clinics by doctors outside the Pacific University Clinic system.
Eyewear Optical at the Southeast Eye Center has over 400 frames to choose from. We not only fill eyewear prescriptions for patients receiving an eye exam at one of the clinics, but we will gladly fill your prescription from an outside optometrist or ophthalmologist. We can provide our patients with any lens style or material which is currently available. These include super thin lenses, anti-reflection coatings, and Transitions® lenses that lighten and darken according to lighting conditions.
Fees
We accept most vision and medical insurance plans including the following:
Medicare
Providence Blue Cross / Blue Shield (depending on plan)
Oregon Health Plan / Care Oregon Plan (Plus and Standard)
For patients in financial need who are not covered by an insurance plan, we offer a variety of reduced fee and other payment options. Fees for services not included in the complete examination such as glasses, contact lenses, or special treatments are extra. Prices for contact lenses and additional services can be obtained by calling our staff at the clinic numbers above.
