Here are some ideas from a case manager at a community clinic: For eyeglasses and vision exams contact your local or state Lions club and ask how to access their Sight and Hearing program. For dental help: Aside from checking dental schools, check for a Federally Qualified Health Center, Community Clinic, Volunteers in Medicine Clinic, or free clinic in your area and ask about access to cheap or free dental care. Many dental offices use CareCredit, but avoid using CareCredit (I call them "ScareCredit")unless you research their terms and conditions *very carefully* and are the type of person who has the means and habits of paying their bills off in full *before* they are due. I don't think many dental offices actually understand how ScareCredit works, it is just an easy answer to give to uninsured people. Good luck, and let your congrescritter know what you think of our current healthcare system. That is the only way anything will change. Luther Von Ruckerson
