Poverty is a persistent roadblock to healthcare and vision loss is at the forefront.
To join in the fight against avoidable blindness, California Lions Friends in Sight vision screenings are coming to your Lions District. It's here where you and your club can help. Together, we will provide free eye health screenings and free recycled eyeglasses.
The California Lions Friends in Sight model is a remarkable innovation.
It starts with your club’s eyeglass collection and Lion volunteers sorting and organizing them. On-site computerized matching leads to the dispensing of vision-correcting eyeglasses. Lions volunteers operate automated refractors and tonometers, followed by a doctor’s eye health screening. And then, everyone who needs eyeglasses gets eyeglasses!
