Time: 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM
Event Description
A free Diabetic Retinopathy Screening for persons with diabetes, or those at risk for diabetes, will be held on Saturday, May 3, 2014 at the Wheaton Public Library from 9am to 3pm. This free eye screening is coordinated by the Wheaton Lions Club the Lions of Illinois Foundation, and is made possible through your generous donations. No appointments are necessary - we will welcome people on a first come first serve basis. The quality of life for people with diabetic retinopathy and other retinal disorders, such as Macular Degeneration, is dramatically impacted. Since early detection of these eye disorders is critical, persons with diabetes or those older than 55 years of age are encouraged to take advantage of this free screening. Persons wishing to join the Wheaton Lions Club in the fight against the effects of vision and hearing loss should contact their local Wheaton Lions Club.
