Optometrists perform eye exam and supply glasses for those needing them at the Sanchez Community Center in the lower 9th Ward. Ten years ago, VSP Mobile Eyes evolved from relief efforts following Hurricanes Katrina and Rita to provide eye care and replace glasses for residents and first responders while equipping doctors, whose practices had been damaged or destroyed, to continue providing care. To celebrate World Sight Day and 10 years of helping people see, VSP Mobile Eyes is returning to where the program started.
