Open for Business: Vision Clinic Downtown

Vision Clinic Downtown
The Vision Clinic’s fourth Springfield-area location opened Sept. 1 at 213 W. Olive St., Ste. 101 in downtown Springfield. Operating under Urban Eye Care Associates LLC, the 1,200-square-foot site joins The Vision Clinic PC affiliates on South National and in Nixa and Ozark. Dr. M. Kory Scullawl and his wife, Bethany, office administrator, run Vision Clinic Downtown, which offers eye exams, contact lenses and glasses, and can diagnose glaucoma symptoms. Bethany Scullawl said the clinic fills a void in optometry service dedicated to downtown residents. Prices depend on co-pay and vision insurance, but without insurance, a yearly comprehensive exam costs $84, she said. Hours: 8:30 a.m.–5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Phone: (417) 862-3937.
