Free parking is available in our lot which is located between the California Memorial Stadium and the Kleeburger athletic field. The lot is open Monday through Saturday for patient parking. Attendants are staffed only Monday through Friday. The parking attendant will direct you to the free shuttle that will take you down the hill to the front door of the clinic. On Saturdays (no attendants available), patients are asked to drive down to the clinic to obtain a parking permit and return to the lot for parking. Please make sure you park in a designated OPT spot. On Sundays, patients are permitted to park adjacent to the eye clinic (go to the clinic upon arrival to obtain a parking permit).
