New Shiley EyeMobile for Children Hits the Road to Serve Underserved Communities

The new EyeMobile is a 33-foot-long furnished recreational vehicle with two exam rooms. The EyeMobile program includes vision screening, dilated eye examinations by an optometrist, a free pair of glasses if needed, follow-up monitoring with teachers and parents and referrals for subspecialist care as needed.

Students will have a robust selection of eye frames to chose from. The bigger more efficient EyeMobile will help achieve the program’s long-term goal of providing eye care services to 20,000 underserved, low-income children per year.
