Eyeglass Donation Program

The Lions collect previously owned eyeglasses by donation. About once a month the collections are gathered up from Mayne drop off points, then routed to clinics at various Canadian locations.  Donations are cleaned, refurbished, read by a lensometer, catalogued, then forwarded to International areas of need, where clinicians match glasses to patients.
