Give the Gift of Sight: Donate Your Used Glasses Today
The Power of Sight: Where Your Donated Glasses Go Next
Collection: Clarus Optometry will collect your donated glasses at our office. Lions and Leos gather used eyeglasses from community donation boxes.
Processing: Volunteers at Lions Eyeglass Recycling Centers clean, sort, and determine the prescription of each pair. Unusable frames are sold for scrap to fund local service projects.
Storage: Cleaned and sorted glasses are packaged and held for distribution.
Distribution: Eye care professionals and volunteers test vision and fit free glasses for children and adults at medical mission sites worldwide.
