Eye Doctors Open on Saturday and Sunday Near You
Eye doctors open on Saturday or Sunday
It can be hard to schedule an optometrist appointment during the week. Life gets in the way, and your full-time schedule may only have openings on days that start with “S.” You need to find an eye doctor who’s open on Saturday or Sunday, but that isn’t always easy.
Your vision needs don’t operate on business days alone, so last-minute exams are another common reason why people visit eye doctors on the weekend.

The search tool on this page provides an easy way to find out which doctors in your area are open on Saturday or Sunday.
To start, select the “Open Weekends” button at the top of the locator, right below the All About Vision logo. Then, click on the “Edit Search” button in the toolbar at the bottom of the page. Enter your location in the middle box titled “Enter address or postal code,” or find your location automatically by pressing the blue circle icon on the right.
If you plan on using vision insurance, now is the time to enter it. Select your insurance carrier in the third box, if applicable. Once these fields are completed, press the blue “Find” button.
