Sight Night® is an annual eyeglasses collection project organized around Halloween or trick-or-treat in your community.

What is Sight Night?
Sight Night is a national event sponsored by Give the Gift of Sight Foundation and Lions Clubs International. Volunteers from Lions, LensCrafters and other organizations across North America are asked to canvass their neighborhoods and collect used eyeglasses during trick-or-treat.

This is a great opportunity to partner with a Leo club, a local LensCrafters store, Scouts or other community youth organizations.

What Kinds of Eyeglasses are Needed?
Complete pairs of children's and adult's prescription eyeglasses and sunglasses are needed, as well as nonprescription sunglasses. Contact Goodwill, Salvation Army or other organizations to donate eyeglass cases.

What is Done With the Collected Eyeglasses?
Collected eyeglasses are cleaned, repaired and hand-delivered during optical missions to developing countries. These missions are sponsored by Give the Gift of Sight in partnership with Lions Clubs Internatioanl.
