Pearle Vision

Hunt Valley Town Center

118 Shawan Road

Hunt Valley Md 21030

 

We are collecting at least 1,000 pairs of used prescription eyeglasses , non prescription sunglasses and readers to take with me on a mission to India on February 12th. I can stop by to pick them up , they can be dropped off in the " Gift of Sight" Box at the Pearle Vision Store in the Hunt Valley Town Center, or mailed directly to the store at the address below.

 

I will be in India for 14 days donating my time and doing eye examinations .I will be working with OneSight , a family of charitable vision care programs dedicated to improving vision through outreach , research and education. Since 1988 these charitable efforts have provided free vision care and eye wear to more than 8 million people in need around the world.

You can learn more about OneSight and the work they do both here in the United States and throughout the world by visiting them at www.onesight.org for those interested in following the work we do in India, there will be a link to blogs posted throughout our stay there.

So look around for those old glasses and donate !! It will truly change someone's life. For those of you who depend on glasses or contacts, imagine your life without them .

Help me give the " Gift of Sight " Thank you

Diane Bernitt
