Our speaker today was Ronda Gusinsky, Executive Director of Life Sight. Life Sight has been in Rapid City for 30 years and provides free vision screening for those who don’t have access or means to eye health exams. Their goal is to protect and restore vision. Most insurance, including Medicare does not cover eye exams. Under the Kids First vision screening program they go into schools and do a free screening for the kids up to 5th grade. They also do screenings as young as 6 months. If any vision issues are detected a copy is given to the parents so they can have an eye exam done. There are vouchers for income based needs. So far they have screened over 57,000 kids throughout the black hills. Life Sight also helps adults get eye care so they can maintain an independent lifestyle.
They are looking for volunteers to help scan at the schools. For more information please visit their website www.lifesightsd.org
