KENNESAW, Ga., Oct. 11, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Classic Vision Care and Eyes on Providence is in collaboration with MUST Ministries to get glasses into the hands of those in need, reports Classic Vision Care. Vision patients can contribute pairs of gently used glasses to the effort and receive $50 toward the purchase of a new set of frames and lens. In this way, the community of Kennesaw, vision providers and MUST Ministries help to better serve those in need and not able to afford prescription eyewear. Patients and residents choosing to donate a pair of old frames to the cause MUST buy both new frames and lenses to qualify for the $50 off a new purchase of frames and lenses.

Classic Vision Care and their sister practice, Eyes on Providence, are offering their services to qualifying participants. In addition to the generously donated eyewear, vision providers and staff will be offering free eye exams to those in need. Classic Vision Care appreciates the assistance of their vision patients and the community in this worthwhile endeavor and associates are available to answer any questions.
