Hello!
Well, if you're interested in virtual participation in our Regional OneSight Clinic to Cleveland, you've landed on the right blog! Our team of 32 volunteers and doctors from around North America are spending 5 days in Cleveland providing complete
eye exams and brand new glasses to approximately 1800 children who could not otherwise afford to see the world clearly.

Each day, right here on this very page, we will be posting highlights from our vision care clinic including stories of our recipients, the team experience a little about Cleveland itself. We arrive on Sunday, Nov. and will be posting messages and photographs through Friday, Nov 6th. Be sure to log on every day so you don't miss a minute of the excitement!

Here's a little background about OneSight and our Global Clinics: OneSight is a family of charitable programs dedicated to improving vision through outreach, research and education. Sponsored by Luxottica Group, OneSight programs have helped more than 7 million people over its 20-year history.

Each year, OneSight conducts two-week clinics in developing countries where our doctors and trained volunteers provide free eye exams and recycled eyewear to thousands of people in need. To date, we’ve run 155 clinics in 31 different developing countries. This year, we have planned 20 clinics in developing countries around the world. For a complete list of clinic
locations, visit www.onesight.org.
