Meet Amaia
Preserve Vision Florida screened her at the Children’s Board Family Resource Center in Brandon. Our team identified that she suffers from myopia, also known as near-sightedness. This is experienced as distant objects appearing blurry, while objects up close appear normal. Some symptoms associated with myopia may be headaches and eye strain. Without correction, Amaia would not be able to see well in a classroom to learn or play sports safely. PVF set up an eye examination with Optical Outlets and the doctor prescribed eyeglasses. Amaia can now see her bright future through her stylish glasses and will keep them safe…
Good News! Back to School
Preserve Vision Florida was invited to the Beth El Farmworker Back to School Bash, where we provided free vision screenings and follow-ups for children who need an eye exam and glasses. During the event, we also provided adult and child eye health and safety education sessions. These families learned how sunglasses protect children and adults from harmful UV rays that can cause vision damage including cataracts!
