Why don't you post your problem on here. Maybe you don't have to go to the ophthalmologist. If you are sure you need to go to the doctor, but can't pay, you can always go to the ER at a community hospital that has ophthalmology coverage, give a fake name and tell them you are an illegal immigrant. Give them fake addresses etc. They will have no way to confirm who you are and are required to treat you anyway. They won't be able to collect on the bill because they don't know who you are or where you are. Millions of illegal immigrants get free healthcare this way and tax payers foot the bill. :)
You can always talk to the billing department and tell them about your situation. They may accept payments. There is also something called Care Credit, a credit care for medical expenses. You may want to check it out. www.carecredit.com
