Guest guest Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 Dr. Akstein eye center is great. The locations are on the southside near Southern Regional hospital and Mcdonough, but well worth the travel! He accepts SSI medicaid and he's bi-lingual. Vision/medicaid My son has medicaid (SSI).I would Luke to know if cover vision. I think he need to get a check up and a may need to use glasses.He fail the vision test on his pediatrician. Does anyone know if medicaid would cover that? If does a live at Cobb where can I find a provider that take medicaid for that. Thanks!!

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 Hi , If you can get a RX for glasses, but medicaid doesn't cover them there are lots of inexpensive glasses online. I believe this is the company that used to recommend http://www.zennioptical.com/#/? You can get glasses for less than $20. This way if he needs multiple pairs, it won't be so bad if something happens to them ;@) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 I use the following website to order glasses from. Lots of my friends do to. Just need your rx and pupillary distance (info on the site about how to measure if eye doc wont tell you). Great way to have different styles for liw price too most are ate $20-30 a pair with lenses. The downside if cant try them on first. http://www.zennioptical.com/ > > > > > > Subject: Re: Vision/medicaid > > To: autism-georgia > > Date: Saturday, July 23, 2011, 10:53 AM > > > > > > > > > > Hi , > > > > If you can get a RX for glasses, but medicaid doesn't cover them > > there are lots of inexpensive glasses online.
