Eyeglasses needed in Ohio

[Bravo]

I’m writing to you for help. I was injured at my job in March and have been unable to work.
My family and I are facing eviction in 11 days and my kid needs eyeglasses and I do not have enough to pay it. The eye doctors here in Cleveland Ohio are so expensive. I only collect workman’s comp and my partner works but has also taken time off to care for me. Please, I am in despair. I don’t want to my son to lose his eyesight or us our home. I also have 2 other children. Thank you and god bless you. My partner just recently was injured and can’t go back to work. Thank you for any help you can give

Hi Latoya,
While it mis not common, a community clinic or health center maybe can help. Some have older glasses that are repurposed. Also try non-profits like the Lions Club and others. But OH medical centers are here. https://www.needhelppayingbills.com/htm ... inics.html

My name is Latoya Trueblood. I am a diabetic who had trouble paying for her eyeglasses in March of this year. It's now on May going on June! In March I purchased my frames and put $60 down and has since had trouble paying for them!
My emails up top you can leave a voicemail/ text ...
Yeah I have OH Medicaid / CareSource. They said they pay for the eye exam for people with diabetes but not the eye glasses! I guess it's a new thing! Again thank you so much for listening to my plight! If you can't help and know who you can forward this to in Ohio please let me know and forward this to them!
