Before You Travel to the US

Eye Care

• Make an appointment for an eye exam
• Get contacts and glasses to bring with you
• Glasses are quite a lot more expensive in the US. It is a good idea to have a second pair in case yours break.

Dental Care

• Make a Dental Appointment

There are optometrists, ophthalmologists, and dentists in Greencastle if you do need care while you’re here. However, they can be expensive without insurance and many students are better able to get dental and eye care in their home countries.

For When You Arrive
