Children’s vision stories needed

We need your help. In order to educate the public about the importance of pediatric eye health and vision care, COA is looking for personal stories of children whose lives were changed after eye or vision problems were corrected by a doctor of optometry.

Suggested stories include: a child with a serious vision problem that was not caught in a school vision screening, children whose academic or behavioral problems greatly improved after their vision problem was corrected, or any other personal story that shows the wide-reaching positive impact eye exams have on children.

If you believe your patient(s) would agree to be interviewed or filmed by COA to tell their story, please contact Kara Corches, COA’s external relations manager.
