👓 Seeing Clearly in Connecticut! 👓
Our #connecticut team had its best year yet, providing vision care services to over 4,200 children, with more than 1,400 receiving #glasses!
Among them were sisters Isabella and Natalya, two bright elementary students from #waterburyct that were having trouble seeing in class until @visiontolearn visited their #school. Here’s how their mother described their experience:
"We had such a great experience with Vision to Learn! Isabella and Natalya love their new glasses and are so happy with the style they helped them choose! The staff was more than wonderful to us. We are forever grateful!"
We`re honored by these kind words and excited to continue helping kids throughout Connecticut get the glasses they need to see clearly in school and in life this coming school year!

Did you know every pair of glasses provided by @visiontolearn is covered by a one year warranty?
So, if in the past year your child received a pair of #glasses from Vision To Learn and they`re lost or broken, we`ll replace them at no-cost! If you want to know how it works, just ask Antuan! A couple weeks ago when his glasses broke, all his parents had to do was go to visiontolearn.org/glasses, and complete a short form. Three weeks later he had a replacement pair of glasses had arrive and he was ready to enjoy the #summer!

Say hello to Milo!
Milo is an elementary school student in a small town near Youngstown, Ohio. While he normally enjoys school, this year he had a problem. Every time he would go to class and put on his glasses, they made his eyes hurt, which made it to be difficult for him to focus.
Fortunately, when Vision To Learn`s Ohio team visited his school we were able to determine that his glasses had the wrong prescription and were able to get him a new pair. When he tried on his new pair of glasses with the correct prescription he said "nothing is blurry! I can see and this is dynamite!”
Milo received his glasses as part of a larger initiative in partnership with @sightforallunited and @ymv_unitedway that has provided nearly 2,000 pairs of glasses to kids in Youngstown this school year.
