1,309 children screened. 145 connected to care. 1 brighter future! 👓✨
For , The Vision Council Foundation teamed up with KidSight MO to bring free vision screenings to schools, daycares, and community sites across 11 Missouri counties!
Using quick, non-invasive handheld screeners, kids as young as 6 months were screened for conditions like amblyopia, astigmatism, and nearsightedness. Out of 1,309 kids screened, 145 were identified with potential vision issues. Now, KidSight is guiding those families step-by-step to help them access local eye doctor visits and financial assistance for glasses! 💙
