Hello @2care, I know not having insurance can be a terrible situation to be in when you are having any kind of medical condition but it must be even worse when it's your eyes. I'm not sure if you have looked into any local government assistance but here is some information that might be helpful:

Do you mind sharing more about your eye problem or diagnosis?

@johnbishop Thank you for sharing this information on possible assistance for those of us with eye issues and insurance or lack of it. Am needing to have eye surgery later this month because of hemorrhage and then six months later cataract procedure. Can only afford Medicare so no supplemental insurance and live in rural area which requires transportation to/from 3 yrs. so a lot to think about.
