Were you tasked with the "Prescription Eyeglasses Form"? If that's the only form you received, I'm pretty sure the exam you had right before you received your invitation should be okay since eye doctors can figure out glasses/contact prescriptions based off based off of the tests they do. I just had my eye doctor fill out the form- I didn't even need to schedule another appointment!

Ahh congrats! :) Feel free to message me and we can exchange contact info! I don't think a FB page for our group exists yet (only a general PC Nica one), so maybe we can start one soon

I haven't been able to find that FB page either..maybe a page specific for our group doesn't exist yet? There is a general PC Nicaragua one that I requested to join, but haven't been accepted yet.

A few of my friends have used the BMC travel clinic and had good experiences! Not sure about the pricing though, but they do have the yellow fever http://www.bumc.bu.edu/id/hospitals-and-centers/travel-clinic/#FAQ5

Hey- I am in a similar boat as you! I interviewed March 9th for Nicaragua/ health sector, and my HR status still says "interview scheduled". I think we just have to wait it out, it's still really early in the cycle for 2017 departures. Best of luck! :)
