Envolve’s Vision Van is on the road providing free vision screenings to community members across the state of North Carolina with a series of community events in partnership with Carolina Complete Health.
Events are open to the public and children and adults are able to receive a vision screening for no cost regardless of insurance coverage. If prescription glasses are needed, community members are able to pick out their own frames on-site and will receive them at their homes within a few weeks. Screening will be administered on a first-come, first-served basis and a parental/guardian consent is required for anyone under the age of 18.
TOUR EXTENDED! Additional dates have been added for free vision screenings available to North Carolina community members.
