We want to meet every child’s complete eye care needs. When a child is identified as requiring medical care beyond what our optometrists can provide, referrals are made to Medicaid-friendly providers like UMSL Eye Care, SLU Sight Clinic, and WashU Eye Center. Information about the diagnosis and referral is communicated to parents, with the goal of not only educating them on the importance of eye health but also the results of their child’s eye exam. Eye Thrive staff also follows up with the parent and provider along the way to assist as needed and ensure the needed additional care is received.
