Healthy Eyes Eyeglass Program, November 2023

“I thank God for this organization. I was unable to purchase eyeglasses and this organization made it possible for me to get my eyeglasses. We need more helpful organizations like this.”

Healthy Eyes Eyeglass Program, December 2023

“Prevent Blindness Texas was able to help my daughter with a pair of glasses, she had broken hers and I’m glad Prevent Blindness Texas was able to give her another pair. I’m so thankful with you all because my daughter’s prescription is really high, and she can’t see without her glasses. Thank you, Prevent Blindness Texas, and to the whole staff and donors. God bless you all always!!!”

Healthy Eyes Eyeglass Program, November 2023

“I have been receiving help from Prevent Blindness Texas for many years. I appreciate the service, the kindness, and concern for my needs. It’s been a blessing to have a caring program to service me and others. May the funding, donations and success for the program continue for good. Many thanks!”

 

VSP Mobile Eyes Program, December 2023

“Prevent Blindness Texas helped me with a free eye exam and a pair of glasses. It impacted me because I don’t have insurance and I need my glasses for distance. My glasses help me a lot as well as the eye doctor can check my eyes because I have dry eyes and my family’s genes have glaucoma and cataracts so checkups to the eye doctor keeps me up to date if my eyes are doing great. Thank you all for your help!!! God bless!”

Healthy Eyes Eyeglass Program, November 2023

“I am so grateful to Prevent Blindness Texas for my new glasses! This was a blessing to me. I just had my first grandbaby one month ago and needed to help my daughter. I am now able to read labels and instructions. Thank you for having a heart to help people in need.”
