One of my coworkers asked me to pass along the following in regard to
the message in a previous mailing.


This is done through and organization called OneSight.
(www.onesight.org).

In-Store Programs
Throughout the year, OneSight's volunteer doctors and employees provide
free eye care and new eyewear in Luxottica's retail stores to those in
need. All patients are pre-selected by local charities based on visual
and financial need.

On OneDay, the second Tuesday of December, LensCrafters, Pearle Vision,
Sears Optical and Target Optical open their doors early to provide free
optical exams and new eyewear to thousands in need. Since this
single-day of giving first began in 1993, more than 250,000 people have
been helped on OneDay. In 2009, OneDay expanded across Luxottica as a
single day of global giving, where employees across 37 countries help
those in need with vision screenings and exams, eyewear adjustments and
more. 

If you have a student in need, and a church, school or other charitable
sponsor who is willing to write a letter on organization letterhead
indicating that the child is in need, include the tax exempt number,
along with the child's name in the body of the letter.  Contact your
local LensCrafters, Pearle Vision, Sears Optical and Target Optical
regarding the next OneDay.

    I received this from one of the lists. I do not know any more about
it, but it is useful information.

A free pair of eyeglasses from Target for any child ages 12 and under
brings a valid prescription for glasses from their doctor.

can find stores with optical departments at www.target.com
