The Louisiana Lions
Cubsight Program is designed to reduce the incidence of amblyopia in
pre-school children through early detection, referral, and treatment
of the common disorders that lead to "Lazy Eye". Volunteers from
more than 100 Lion Clubs have been trained to utilize the MTI
photoscreening camera to screen pre-school children, ages 2-5 years
old, in Day Care Centers, Headstart Programs, and private/parochial
schools throughout Louisiana. The Louisiana
Lions Cubsight Program is sponsored by the
Lions Clubs International
Foundation, Louisiana Lions Eye Foundation,
Louisiana State
University Health Science Center,
Louisiana Office of Public Health,
and the local Lions Clubs of Louisiana. |
