Make a Spectacle of Yourself Contest ($25 Visa Gift Card Giveaway)

By Heather

thinkaboutyoureyeslogoWinner: Anna Pry

Nobody knows better than me that it’s important to pay attention to the health of your eyes.  My vision is very poor, and I have had various infections caused by contact lens wearing.  If my eyes aren’t right, I’m off my game.

My husband on the other hand, has perfect vision.  I hope and pray that it’s the one trait that my mini-me Emma inherits from her father.

Here’s why parents should be concerned about their child’s vision care:

– According to the Vision Council of America, one in four children has a vision problem that can interfere with learning and behavior.
– 80 percent of what we learn is through our eyes, yet 85 percent of America’s pre-schoolers haven’t received a vision exam by age five.
– A pre-kindergarten exam is a must. Don’t assume school offered screenings are enough.
– Studies show that 60 percent of students identified as problem learners have undetected vision troubles.
– 25 percent of all school children in the U.S. have a vision problem significant enough to affect learning.
– 70 percent of juvenile delinquents have uncorrected vision problems.

By entering the “Make a Spectacle of Yourself” contest you can win $400.00 to spend on eyeglasses, sunglasses, or if you don’t need either – anything else your heart desires.  The contest is sponsored by the Think About Your Eyesorganization.  The contest (part of the campaign’s ongoing efforts to promote eye health awareness) encourages entrants to protect their eyes with proper eyewear that blocks 100 percent of UV rays and show off their eyewear by submitting a photo.  You have until July 10th to enter!
