Ojai Lions Recycle for Sight

Lions Club collect used prescription and non-prescription sunglasses as part of a unique recylcling program. The collected glasses will be cleaned and prepared for distribution in developing countries where eye care is often unaffordable and inaccessible. In most developing countries, an eye exam  can cost as much as one month's wages and a single eye doctor may serve a community of hundreds of thousands of people. The donated glasses will be shipped to a regional Lions Eyeglass Recycling Center where they  will be cleaned, categorized by prescription and prepared for distribution by Lions and other groups. To donate used glasses place them in a Recycle for Sight collection box located at The Ojai Medicine Shoppe or contact Vicki Hunt at 805-798-0278. Glasses can also be brought to our meetings on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of each Month at the Oak View Community Center.
