Good vision plays a vital role in every student’s success—both inside and outside the classroom. Uncorrected
vision problems can lead to difficulty concentrating, disruptive behavior, and struggles with learning and
participation. Beyond academics, poor vision can also affect a child’s social and athletic development.
At VIP Eyes Auburn, we understand that for many families, the cost of eyeglasses can be a challenge. That’s
why we’re proud to continue our mission of giving back to our community through our Annual Gives Back
Day, established in 2015. Our goal is simple: to help as many students as possible see clearly and confidently.
Event Details Date: Wednesday, November 26th Time: 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM
Location: VIP Eyes Auburn 120 Center St Plaza Auburn
