Ophthalmology
The Department of Ophthalmology at UI Health has a historic legacy of unparalleled clinical care, outstanding education, and innovative research. For more than 150 years, we have been leaders in providing the most advanced care to patients with serious and complicated eye conditions. Home of the Illinois Eye and Ear, we are the No. 1 referral destination for ophthalmologists in the region. Our nationally recognized subspecialty services and ophthalmologists are committed to treating and curing eye diseases, and we focus on training and developing the best and brightest students to be the next generation of eyecare leaders.
Telehealth Appointments
To better serve our patients during the spread of COVID-19, we're transitioning to a virtual clinic and are offering telehealth appointments to new and existing patients. A telehealth appointment is a virtual "at home health visit" conducted through phone or video call. Please call 312.996.EYES (3937) to request an appointment. If you have a video visit scheduled, please click here for instructions.
