Vision for Learning
Provides free vision screening and glasses to students in need.
The La Misión Rotary Vision project utilizes advanced auto-refractor technology to assess the eyesight of children and adults in our service area and beyond. Initial screenings are conducted using the familiar Floating E chart. If potential vision issues are identified, clients undergo further evaluation with the auto-refractor—a portable device originally developed by Rotary for use in remote locations. For those who require glasses, the Vision program crafts them on-site, allowing clients to leave with improved vision the same day. At select clinics, adults are also invited for evaluations, and the self-service reading glasses table remains a popular feature especially among seniors.
