Kidsight
Lions KidSight is a worldwide program bringing Lions clubs together to ensure our children receive eye screenings and follow-up care when needed. We train and mobilize caring people to be able to easily and efficiently screen the vision health of our nation’s youngest, dearest, and most vulnerable children to help ensure they receive early academic and social development success that we all deserve — guided by the fact that 80% of a child’s learning and development requires healthy, corrected vision.
We also maintain a database of annual vision screening results, assess the continuing technology developments in the field of childhood vision screening & correction, and promote rigorous medical and public health standards and continuing visual health research & development when it concerns our youth - our entire future.

Donate Your Old Glasses
The World Health Organization estimates that 120 million are visually impaired because of uncorrected refractive errors (far and near sightedness). Refractive errors can be easily diagnosed, measured and corrected with eyeglasses, contact lenses or refractive surgery. Yet, millions of people lack access to these basic services.
Donated eyeglasses can help improve the quality of life for children and adults living in low and middle income communities around the world. Many will experience corrected vision for the first time, enabling them to lead productive working lives, support their families, attend school and advance their education.
