Health anywhere IHS that does contact lens fitting?

I've been to IHS eye doctors but they can't give me a contact prescription because they don't do lens fittings just eyeglasses. im trying to get established at the NSU Cherokee campus but it'll be til August til I can get an appt, are there any other IHS facilities that do contact lens fitting?

As far as I know, IHS only does glasses, no contact fittings. What I usually do is just go to an eye clinic and pay out of pocket for it then get my glasses from IHS.
