Optional Vision Plan for SHIP Members
You may know already how expensive good eye care and eye wear can be. An optional vision plan is available at a reasonable price to those enrolled in the SHIP (students, as well as dependents). This plan allows you to receive vision services from a network of providers within Ithaca and outside the area.
