Provide a family environment with meaningful life experiences for the youth whose care has been entrusted to the Oklahoma Lions.

 Clearly there is a need for the kind of nurturing, supportive care an abuse or neglect victim can receive in a loving home environment.

How the Eyeglass Recycling Process Works

Lions collect used eyeglasses all over their community, and then ship them to a Lions Eyeglass Recycling Center, where trained volunteers sort the glasses, clean them and determine the eyeglasses’ prescription strengths. These glasses are given to those in need at eyeglass-dispensing missions in developing nations, where Lions and eye care professionals perform vision screenings and provide eyeglasses free of charge
