Illinois Eye Examination Requirement

Any student, regardless of age, moving from out of state into District 203 must show proof of having an eye examination by a physician licensed to practice medicine or a licensed optometrist within the previous year. This examination must include history, visual acuity, best corrected and uncorrected vision, internal and external examination, and glaucoma evaluation. A waiver is allowed for students who show undue burden or lack of access to a physician licensed to do eye examinations. The Illinois eye examination form and waiver are available in the form section.
