Does anyone know a place where one could donate used eyeglasses?
Thanks

I bet there's a local Lions Club. They take those.

That was my first thought, too...all those years of White Cane Days.

excellent, thanks - I found a link on their website about it...

There is an eyeglasses donation bin in the window of the optometrist office a couple doors down from Mike's Restaurant right in the square. I'm not sure the name, but it's right there.

Saragas on Highland Ave, yep. Very nice folks in there, too. Plus they advertise with my community theater group (Theatre@First on College Ave) so they must be wonderful. :)

Scroll down to eyeglasses and there are some suggestions here (http://www.ci.newton.ma.us/DPW/recycling/residents/odd_materials.htm).

This has nothing to do with your question but I noticed that your user pic is from the TUSVM wildlife clinic. Did you work there?
