Answer 1

http://www.lionsclubs.org/EN/content/vision_eyeglass_recycling.shtml Lions, Leos, and other volunteers collect used eyeglasses for donation to Lions Eyeglass Recycling Centers that are located throughout the world. The used eyeglasses are cleaned and classified by prescription. The eyeglasses are then distributed to those in need by Lion volunteers and other organizations hosting optical missions in developing countries. Individuals may donate used eyeglasses to Lions clubs via: Lions collection boxes (available for purchase through Lions Club Supplies) may be found in easily assessible locations such as post offices, libraries, schools, eye doctors' offices, train stations, banks, coffee shops, video stores and other community businesses; Lions Eyeglass Recycling Centers; Offices of American Optometric Association or the Canadian Association of Optometrists members.
