Lions Vision Services a South Carolina Charity

Lions vision services empowers the under-served blind and visually- impaired in South Carolina to live safe, meaningful and fulfilling lives.

The santee blind fishing event is a recreational, educational, quality-of- life enhancing event for individuals with blindness or vision loss and their caregivers. Lvs provides a weekend retreat in the santee region where blind and visually impaired individuals connect with others who have similar shared life experiences and participate in a catch-and-release fishing tournament. Expenses for the program cover food, lodging, transportation, and equipment for clients and volunteers.

The affordable eyewear program provides eyeglasses to residents with a demonstratable financial need and no other resources, public or private, to pay for these services. Lvs will provide a basic pair of single or lined bifocal lenses at no cost to the client. Some other basis types of eyewear devices may also be obtained based on the recommendation of a licensed eyecare profressional. Clients will be referred to a local optometrist if they have not already established a provider to ensure an accurate prescription.

Lions Vision Services a South Carolina Charity is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit (EIN 23-7105526) based in Columbia, SC.
