He squints because everything further than 15 feet is blurry. At school he is always picked last at recess because he can't hit the ball. In the classroom he can't see the board from his seat in the back row. He gets headaches and has difficulty reading for more than a few minutes at a time. Embarrassment is giving way to frustration and anger. How can a child succeed when one of his most important faculties fails him?
Project Homeless Connect offers services aimed at helping people with visual problems. We recognize that while some consider the eyes the gateway to the soul, they are at least the footpath to gainful employment. If a person has difficulties seeing, then their work will suffer and they might be reprimanded for something that is easily correctable. The volunteers at PHC who help in this area offer an invaluable service to many who are in need of an optical adjustment.
See you there!
