Local EyeMasters Stores & Davis Vision Team Up with San Antonio Spurs

AT&T Center to Host Children's Vision Screenings

SAN ANTONIO, TX (April 7, 2009) - San Antonio area EyeMasters retail stores and Davis Vision eye care professionals are teaming up with the San Antonio Spurs tomorrow at the AT & T Center to provide free vision screenings for children who are uninsured or have minimal insurance coverage. The screening will be held April 8 from 3:30 - 5:30 p.m.

A voucher for a complimentary eye examination and a free pair of eyeglasses from participating EyeMasters stores will be provided to children in need of follow-up services after the initial screening. Eye care professionals will be using screening equipment to test each child's eyes for existing and potential vision problems.

"Professional eye care can be expensive for families who do not have access to affordable vision benefits," said Laura Dyer, assistant vice president, Community Outreach and Media Relations for Davis Vision. "That's why we are very happy to be a part of this important event."

Davis Vision, EyeMasters and Eye Care Centers of America have a long history of involvement in local community outreach programs, and regularly sponsor free vision screening clinics for children.
