This is a tremendous project for our state . Sauk Prairie Lions screened 212 students this spring.

Next up, let's take a look at our 2025 Vision Screening results.

In 2025, there were 203 MD27 Lions of Wisconsin Clubs who reported data for Vision Screening. This resulted in 122,470 children having their vision screened throughout Wisconsin, with 15,259 children being referred for additional follow-up with an eye health professional. In partnership with Shopko Optical's Kids in Focus program, 457 vouchers were distributed to help children in need obtain an eye exam and a pair of eyeglasses, if needed.

Thank you to all of the certified vision screeners from the Lions Clubs throughout the state for your service and dedication to vision screening!

From Jan. 28 to Feb. 6, The Sauk Prairie Lions Club provided vision screening to all 4K students in the Sauk Prairie School District, Leaps and Bounds, SP Early Learning Center and St Aloysius Catholic School to identify children who may have vision problems. Using a Welsch Allen Vision Screener, the Lions Club annually provides this service. A note is sent home if a student shows any vision issues with suggestions to have a professional follow up exam. The Lions Club also offers financial assistance for a professional exam and eyeglasses to families in need.

Vision is one of the key focus areas for Lions Clubs worldwide. Sauk Prairie Lions Club along with 557 clubs in Wisconsin supports this mission in many ways. We financially support the Lions Eye Bank of Wisconsin and help transport cornea tissue between hospitals and the eye bank. We also support Leader Dog training and the Wisconsin Lions Camp which has several weeks each summer dedicated to serving children who are blind or visually impaired. We collect and recycle eyeglasses and provide diabetes awareness materials through the Wisconsin Lions Foundation.
