Strong interpersonal skills, patience, and clear communication are important for working effectively with individuals of all ages, especially children or elderly patients. These skills ensure that accurate screenings are conducted efficiently and compassionately, supporting early detection of vision issues.

Job description

Volunteers help screen children and adults for vision problems in day care centers, pre-schools, schools and community venues such as health fairs. Did you know that 80% of what a child learns comes through the visual system? That's why it is so important to have a child's vision checked early so that he/she can be referred to an eye doctor for treatment. It is also important to screen adults because age-related diseases such as macular degeneration, cataracts, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy can create vision problems. Fluency in Spanish would be helpful for this volunteer opportunity.
