A message from Friends for Sight:
Friends for Sight is a non-profit organization that works passionately each day to save sight and change lives. Our sole purpose is to provide free vision screenings that can detect possible preventable blindness factors and assess if children are seeing as they should for their age.
If your child cannot see at the appropriate distance for their age, a referral form will be sent home with your child. This sheet will give you more detail and is a good indication that scheduling a full eye exam for your child should be a priority.
Please remember that a vision screening is not a substitute for a complete eye exam and vision evaluation by an eye doctor. Since no child should be denied proper eye care because of finances, Friends for Sight has several partnerships that provide free eye exams and glasses for those who qualify for financial assistance.
If you have any questions regarding vision screening, ages when full exams are recommended or would like any additional information, please call us at (801) 524-2020 or visit our website at www.friendsforsight.org.
