VSC Patriot Optical Shop Now Open at the JACC!
Just a part of your VA benefits! In addition to being enrolled in VA healthcare, you, your family, caregivers, VA staff and our volunteers can take advantage of VCS optical services.
We are proud to announce the opening of a new Veteran Canteen Services (VCS) PatriotVision Optical Shop at our Joint Ambulatory Care Center (JACC) in Pensacola. This new service is part of our ongoing commitment to providing our Veterans with high-quality, accessible healthcare services.
You will find the new PatriotVision Optical Shop on the first floor of the JACC in Room 1G 103B. One of our Volunteers can help direct you to the clinic when you visit.
Hours of operation are Monday – Friday, 8:00 am – 4:00 pm. Last walk-in time is 3:00 pm.
Bring your optical prescription into any participating VA optical shop to be filled. VA optical shops offer a current selection of frames and endless options are available. You can also purchase additional frames for a reduced price. We also offer this service at Biloxi VA Medical Center and are looking at adding this service to another of our clinics located on the Florida panhandle in the near future.
