Make an appointment

At Group Health there’s no need to be shortsighted about your vision. An annual eye exam can detect more than poor vision. It can shed early light on glaucoma, macular degeneration, cataracts and diabetes. Exams take an hour or less and can be scheduled within two weeks. Same-day appointments are available for urgent or emergent eye conditions. Call 1-800-664-9225 press 1 to make an general eye exam or contact lens appointment.

Should you see an eye care professional right away?

If you live in an area not served by Group Health Eye Care Doctors

Contracted optometrists and ophthalmologists provide eye care to Group Health members in areas not served by staff doctors. To find a contracted eye doctor, visit our Provider Directory. Optometrists are part of the "Self-Referral Specialist" category.
