Alicia Hyatt, Eyeglass World District Training Manager, spoke to the Noblesville Lions Club on how her company works with information from the Club.
When the Lions Club refers a student from a school, Eyeglass World provides an exam and a pair of eye glasses at no charge. This is for families in need and usually ones without insurance. Eyeglass World has two national programs that support providing eyeglasses to those in need. Lion Steve Shaw pointed out that the Lions have made 22 referrals from Noblesville Schools since August.
