Cherry Health’s Mobile Vision Clinic will kick off June 10th. The goal behind the program is to increase access to vision care. Patients will get full eye exams.

A news release says Cherry Health is expanding access to vision care in West Michigan throughout the summer months and Dr. Meagan Baker, director of Cherry Health Vision Services says, “The Cherry Health Mobile Vision Clinic offers eye care services to patients in a new way,” adding, “this is just another way that Cherry Health continues to break down barriers for our patients and community members and expand access for those who might otherwise have difficulties receiving vision care.”
