West Fargo Lions Club Vison Screening
💙In October, our club screened 352 students at South Elementary (one of 5 schools our club screens each year)!
💙12% of the students received referrals to an optometrist.
💙According to educational experts, 80% of learning is visual. If children can’t see well, they will have more difficulty learning.
💙1-in-3 young children have poor but correctable vision, often just needing eyeglasses. Vision screenings can detect vision issues early!
💙We got to meet Bella, the comfort dog!
