Why Vision?
Vision care can have a profound effect on the health and quality of life of residents of long term care facilities:

The ability to perform activities of daily living is highly correlated to vision.

Virtually all residents have at least one eye problem,  with over half having two or more problems.

Visual impairment is 13 to 15 times more common among nursing facility residents than others the same age.

Studies have found that 20% to 40% of residents showed marked improvement in vision after a complete eye examination.

An eye examination can provide early detection of some general health issues.
