      <Desc>Lighthouse Vision Clinics served 5,236 patients, providing 2,045 eye exams and 4,962 eyeglasses in 2016. Our mobile Vision Clinics provided services at 34 partner, non-profit health clinics throughout Georgia. Our model for delivering care is efficient and comprehensive: Volunteer optometrists and ophthalmologists provide eye exams, and populations at risk for eye disease are educated in the prevention and treatment of these conditions. After receiving eye services, patients are provided prescription eyewear fabricated at our headquarters in the Chamblee, Georgia Optical Lab. If a progressive condition is diagnosed, the client is then referred to our Surgery Program.</Desc>

        <Desc>In 2016, The Georgia Lions Lighthouse Foundation provided 2,180 hearing aids for those in need. In 2015, the Lighthouse expanded its program to provide hearing services for children ages birth to 19 years. Nearly 2 in 1,000 babies are born each year with congenial hearing loss, making it one of the most commonly occurring birth defects. For many parents, this is further complicated by the high cost of pediatric hearing aids. We believe that no child should be denied hearing aids based on an inability to pay. For families living in Georgia, we aim to serve as a hope and a resource.Our Pediatric Hearing Program offers high quality, affordable access to Georgia families who are uninsured, underinsured and fall between the gaps in Medicaid, PeachCare and the federal limit for families receiving subsidies or tax credits. In additional to hearing aids, children who qualify also receive nine provider appointments and six years in repair, loss and damage warranties.</Desc>

        <Desc>In 2016, the Lighthouses Vision Surgery Program provided 737 surgical procedures for uninsured Georgians. Our Vision Surgery Program facilitates corneal transplants, cataract and retinal surgeries, and surgeries to prepare eye sockets for prosthetic eyes. We also provide surgery for diabetes-related vision loss and keratoconus. Partnerships with over 200 ophthalmologists, hospitals, and other medical providers enable us to provide eye surgeries for one-fifth the typical cost, with the value of in-kind professional services exceeding $763,800 in 2016.</Desc>
