Free eye exams for Columbia children at Family First on April 1

Family First Health is partnering with Envolve to bring the Vision Van to Columbia on Saturday, April 1, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. The Vision Van offers FREE eye exams and FREE prescription glasses (if needed) to children 5 years and older who may not otherwise be able to afford these services.

The Vision Van will be parked on Locust St. directly in front of Family First Health on April 1. The screenings are first come, first served and parents will need to sign a consent form. Family First Health will open its doors so that we can have our guests wait in our lobby and have access to restrooms until it is time for them to be screened. If children need an extensive eye screening, they will hop on the van and be evaluated by an eye doctor. Those needing glasses will be able to select theirs from a wide selection of different colors/styles and the glasses are shipped directly to their home.

To make the event run smoothly, consent forms should be filled out prior to coming to the event. Download and print the consent form shown below:
