Eyecare Project

Through our collaboration with Eyeglass World with "Project Eye Exam" we were honored to provide 32 compliment pairs of eyeglasses for our underserved individuals, senior from rural See Wee to Santee community services area from October 2021 to January 2022.

We here at AROC is uniquely positioned with a new partner that help us with those in need of this valuable service. We are currently uncertain if we will continue to serve the other underserved individuals from the See Wee to Santee communities. we will keep you inform or call for further updates on AROC's special voucher program for at-risk youth, young adults and family, seniors and veteran, disability individuals we serve in Charleston and Berkeley County. if grant funds become available for AROC to continue to provide these services in the future for our unserved population.

DID YOU KNOW

Eye disease is widespread from children to adults. There are thousands of people who go without eye care and eyeglasses due to low income. Eye disease should be treated properly and timely.

Lack of care, exams, and treatment may cause severe eyesight loss. So people consider it as a costly treatment because there are so many processes of treatment that are costly indeed. But there is the hope of assistance to help low­ income people.

There are free eye care and eyeglasses for low-income available from different organizations at free of cost according to their eye health needs.
