Changing Lives, One Pair at a Time

In just about any dresser drawer, one can find a pair of eyeglasses that are no longer being used. That same pair of eyeglasses can change another person's life.

Lions Recycle for Sight

That's why Lions Clubs International started the Lions Recycle for Sight program. Everyone can help.

Throughout the year, Schertz-Cibolo Selma Lions club collect used eyeglasses through a network of our Lion members and at a drop box locations indicated above. The glasses are counted and then delivered to our regional facility Texas Lions Eyeglass Recycling Center (TLERC) in Midland, Texas. Each individual pair of eyeglasses are sorted, cleaned, repaired, tested, packaged and prepared for shipment. Most of the recycled glasses are distributed to people in need in developing countries where they will have the greatest impact.

How You Can Help

If you have used eyeglasses you no longer need, you can donate them by dropping them off at any of the Schertz-Cibolo Selma Lions Club drop box locations. Lions accept prescription and reading glasses, sunglasses and empty plastic and metal frames. Children's glasses are especially needed.

View a video on how eyeglasses are recycled. For more information, contact a member of the Schertz-Cibolo Selma Lions Club or attend one of our monthly meetings.
