Augie Optical Dispensary

UCSF's Augie Optical Dispensary is conveniently located inside the Ron Conway Family Gateway Medical Building on our Mission Bay campus. We are a one-stop shop for patients who need eyeglasses, prescription sunglasses, contact lenses, protective eyewear or accessories. We carry frames for people of all ages, from infants to adults, with an emphasis on pediatrics, so parents will find a large selection to meet their children's needs.

We welcome self-pay patients as well as those with VSP insurance. Outside prescriptions are also welcome.

Patients can make an appointment to visit the dispensary; we also welcome walk-ins, but cannot guarantee availability.
