I came accross this program and I thought there might be a few of you that could benefit from this program.
It is called NEW EYES FOR THE NEEDY. It is based in the U.S. and provides needy people with glasses through a voucher program.
Website for additional information is located at

Providing Glasses in the US Who Is Eligible?
New Eyes for the Needy purchases new prescription eyeglasses for low-income individuals in the US through a voucher program. To be eligible for our program, applicants must:
Be in financial need.
Have had a recent eye exam. New Eyes does not pay for eye exams. Click here if you need assistance in locating a source of free or low-cost eye exams.
Have no other resources available to them to pay for glasses, including federal or state programs or assistance from local charitable organizations.
A New Eyes voucher typically covers only the cost of a basic pair of single or bifocal eyeglasses.
New Eyes does not endorse the purchase of more costly glasses at a client's additional expense. The intent of our program is to help those most in need. Clients who have sufficient resources to supplement our voucher should not be eligible for our program.
f you can benefit from this program just leave me a comment letting me know it was helpful. Thanks!!! (more)
