Caring for your eyes

Like all other major organs in our body, the eye needs proper nutrition and protection from injury. Although we are well acquainted with the need to wear eye protection when taking part in sports activity that could result in accidental eye injury, we should also be aware of what may be a less obvious risk, yet one with great implications to eye health: eye stress and fatigue.

Recycle Eyeglasses Campaign 2008

Seneca is once again soliciting unneeded eyeglasses to send to countries such as Angola, Bangladesh, Cambodia, El Salvador and Liberia, to name a few. Hosted by the Vision Clinic, Seneca’s first eyeglass recycling campaign in 2005 resulted in donations of over 150 pairs of eyeglasses that were sent to Bangladesh through the Canadian Lions Eyeglass Recycling Centre (CLERC). We hope to achieve and exceed the 2005 results by May, 2008.

Please drop off your used eyeglasses to Philip Lui in the Vision Clinic at Newnham campus. The Lions Club will ensure that, no matter the present condition of your eyeglasses, they will be repaired and made ready for use. Thanks for your support.

-------

Given the overwhelming support of Senecans, the Seneca College Vision Clinic was able to collect 170 pairs of sun and eyeglasses for those in need in developing countries. On behalf of Seneca College, Lion Clubs International and those who benefit from your generous donations, we thank you for your support.
