“For 1.1 billion people in the world is a blur. We believe access to vision care is a basic human right, because clear vision can help people improve their own lives.

HELP US GIVE THE GIFT OF SIGHT
Collecting and recycling eye glasses and hearing aids is one of the longtime traditions of The Saratoga Springs Lions Club. One of the easiest ways you can become a part of our mission of serving others, is to donate your old eye glasses and hearing aids that will help someone see the world and hear it’s sounds.
DROP OFF YOUR OLD GLASSES AT ONE OF OUR COLLECTION POINTS
We collect eye glasses and hearing aids at drop boxes located throughout Saratoga County. There are 18 locations spread throughout Saratoga County including Wilton Mall, YMCA’s, Saratoga Hospital, and Wesley.
We then have a sorting party after which the glasses & aids are transported to our Lions friends in the Lions New Jersey Eye Glass Recycling Center.
FROM THERE THE GLASSES ARE DISTRIBUTED ALL OVER THE WORLD!
The New Jersey Lions Eyeglass Recycling Center collects and recycles over one million pair of eyeglasses each year.
We help over 400,000 children and adults around the world have better vision, to improve their quality of life.
