Providing Affordable Eye Care to San Diego
For over 50 years, the Lions Optometric Vision Clinic (LOVC) has been a beacon of support for individuals and families in need of vision care throughout San Diego County. Committed to its mission, the LOVC offers essential eye care services and eyeglasses to low-income individuals, as well as junior military personnel (E-6 and below) and their dependents. The clinic provides these services to ensure that everyone has access to the basic vision care they need, regardless of their financial situation.
Who Can Receive Services?
The LOVC works by referral only, accepting clients from various local agencies and organizations. These include:
In addition, referrals are accepted from primary, middle, and high schools, as well as colleges and Senior Centers across the county.
Conveniently Located in Balboa Park
The LOVC is centrally located in Balboa Park at 1805 Upas Street, making it easily accessible to clients throughout San Diego. The clinic is open to the public from Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 1 PM, offering a convenient option for those who need vision care during standard business hours. Whether you’re a student, senior, or military member, the clinic is here to provide high-quality care at little to no cost.
Helping San Diego See Clearly
The LOVC provides comprehensive eye exams and prescription eyeglasses to those who qualify. By working closely with local agencies and schools, the clinic ensures that individuals who might otherwise go without vision care are able to receive the help they need. Many of the clients who visit the clinic would not be able to afford these services elsewhere, making the LOVC an invaluable resource for the community.
The Lions Optometric Vision Clinic continues to serve as a testament to the Downtown San Diego Lions Club’s dedication to improving lives through vision care and community support.
