Will my medicaid cover both the eye exam and the glasses and or contacts, whatever I decide? I haven't been to the eye doctor in years and I never used medicaid for it, last time I went I paid out of pocket since I had some cash.

Depends on state, as others say call. In my experience if they cover the exam they typically will cover some sort of glasses, usually not contacts, bare-bones lenses on some frames, and only maybe 1 pair a year if at that. Some optometry offices will have a section of cheap or medicaid/care frames to explore in their collections.
I would ask the eye doctor for a copy of your prescription so you can hit up Zennioptical or something if you're interested in a backup copy of lenses, or if the eye doctor doesn't take medicaid for eye glasses at all. Make sure to get your PD numbers if you go that route.
Cool and thanks for the link
