4 The Stowe Mission of Central Ohio provides a Vision/Eye Clinic with three volunteer eye doctors (ophthalmologists/optometrists) serving twenty patients a month. Patients come to the Stowe Mission and complete application paperwork with the help of Earl Lintz the administrative coordinator. If needed, Earl Lintz assists patients by linking them with other available resources. These vision/eye services are provided to individuals who otherwise would not be able to afford eyeglasses. There are no restrictions on where people come from. Qualifying patients see one of the Stowe Mission of Central Ohio s eye doctors. The doctor will examine a patient and write a prescription for eye glasses, if needed. Stowe Mission has a partnership with *Prevent Blindness Ohio s Vision Care Outreach Program. If the patient qualifies based on the current Federal Poverty Guidelines and does not have eye care insurance, Prevent Blindness Ohio will pay for eyeglass frames and lenses. To make a Vision/Eye Clinic appointment, call Stowe Mission of Central Ohio Vision/Eye Clinic P.O. Box Parsons Columbus, Ohio phone fax stowemission@gmail.com *Prevent Blindness Ohio celebrates 50+ years as Ohio s leading volunteer nonprofit public health organization dedicated to preventing blindness and preserving sight.
