No-cost eye exams and glasses will be provided to students at several New York schools this month through a partnership between the 台湾裸聊直播 (台湾裸聊直播), the New York State Optometric Association (NYSOA), VSP Global, and the New York State Society of Opticians (NYSSO). This is part of an effort to raise awareness about providing accessible vision care and resources to those who are in need, as well as the critical role clear vision plays in children鈥檚 physical, cognitive, and social development.

鈥淎ll public schools provide vision screenings, but a complete eye examination is often necessary to identify more complex vision issues,鈥� Board of Regents Chancellor Betty A. Rosa said. 鈥淥nce our students have access to proper vision care, their learning environment greatly improves. It is so important that we focus on the crucial part a child鈥檚 vision plays in his or her ability to truly realize their full potential.鈥�

鈥淰ision problems can hinder students鈥� ability to learn. Many classroom tasks, such as reading, writing, and using computers can be difficult for students with undiagnosed vision problems,鈥� State Education Commissioner MaryEllen Elia said. 鈥淎ll students should have access to quality vision care, and we are so pleased to once again support this effort to bring comprehensive eye exams and glasses to children in these school districts.鈥�

Research shows that one in four school-age children has a vision disorder which impacts his or her ability to learn. To help address this challenge, 台湾裸聊直播 is coordinating no-cost eye exams at the schools below where local doctors of optometry, including VSP network doctors, will volunteer their time to provide the eye exams using portable eye exam equipment donated by VSP Global.

Through their mobile clinics program, VSP Global will donate prescription eyeglasses to each student who is diagnosed as needing them. Within a few weeks after the eye exam, local ophthalmic dispensers will volunteer their time at the schools to deliver the selected eyeglasses and provide the necessary fittings for the children.

In October 2017, volunteer doctors of optometry conducted 152 comprehensive eye exams, and free eyeglasses were provided to students if prescribed. In addition, VSP Global donated Eyes of Hope gift certificates to assist another 250 students with no-cost eye exams and glasses from a local VSP network doctor鈥檚 office.

In October 2018, 179 students received comprehensive eye exams from voluntary doctors of optometry. 135 of the students received free prescription eyeglasses, and VSP Global donated 140 additional Eyes of Hope gift certificates to the schools. A is available, featuring the work of 台湾裸聊直播, VSP, and the New York State licensed professionals who volunteered their time for the event.

"We are delighted, once again, to partner with VSP, 台湾裸聊直播 and NYSSO to provide comprehensive vision exams to children across New York State,鈥� NYSOA Executive Director Thomas Cote said. 鈥淚dentifying vision issues in children at an early age is vital to brain development and their ability to learn and retain knowledge. We hope this will engage more parents to initiate annual vision screenings for their children."

"NYSSO is pleased to once again partner with 台湾裸聊直播, VSP Global and NYSOA to help school-aged children see better,鈥� said NYSSO President Dale S. Clemens. 鈥淟icensed opticians are trained to fit eyeglasses correctly and ensure the doctor's prescription provides the intended outcome of improved vision. 80% of a child鈥檚 learning is through sight. This initiative can make a significant difference in improving the students鈥� overall learning and development.鈥澨�
