The event will be during the Power of Florence, Satur- day, July 21, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., at City Lights Cinemas, 1930 Highway 101. The MHSP provides free health screenings for vision, glaucoma, blood pressure and diabetes (blood glucose) with a 3-hour fast for adults. In the last two decades, more than 1,000,000 people in Oregon and Northern Cal- ifornia have been screened, and because of it, over 180,000 health problems have been successfully detected. MHSP is the only statewide free health screening program of its kind in Oregon. OLSHF’s mission is to screen, treat, save and restore sight and hearing for those in need in partnership with local Lions Clubs. Last year, 184,000 people were screened statewide through MHSP, at an average cost of less than $4 per person. In 2015, OLSHF launched its newest program — the LEAP Optical Finishing Lab — that will support local Li- ons Clubs with low-cost glass- es for eligible adults. Lions also provides the gift of sight to people in devel- oping countries with nearly 72,000 eye glasses shipped and distributed through mis- sion work.
