Free vision exams by the Aurora Lions Club volunteers will be offered for children ages six months to 16 years from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 16 at Santori Aurora Public Library, 101 S. River Street in Aurora.
The public is invited. Admission and parking are free. Advance registration is not required. Walk-ins are welcome.
Lions volunteers offer a monthly clinic on the third Saturday of the month at the library.
Volunteers use a handheld Plusoptix screener to check eye health of kids for near-sightedness, called myopia; far-sightedness, hyperopia; and astigmatism, egg-shaped eye.
Vision cameras are supported by a grant from Lions International Foundation. The effort is part of Lions Kidsight USA, community eye-screening for children sponsored by Lions International.
