Eye exams, donated glasses provided at Family Health Center, Battle Creek

Staff from the Southwest Michigan Eye Center provided eye exams and glasses to patients at the Family Health Center Wednesday afternoon.

"We brought in the Kendall Optical System that's used for taking donated Lions Club glasses and categorizing them into a computer organizing system. Then they're boxed and bar coded." said Dr. Jeffrey Colquhoun. Students from the Battle Creek Area Mathematics and Science Center had previously worked to prepare about 2,000 pairs of glasses into the system.
