Welcome to the OneSight Camp Pendleton Blog!! A group of about 20 Oakley and other Luxottica employees will be serving the families of military personnel in a one-week eye care clinic near Camp Pendleton Marine Base in San Diego. The family members receive eye exams on base, but do not have access to affordable prescription glasses. We will be providing frames donated by Oakley and other companies for the families to select and will produce prescription glasses on site at no cost to the families! This is an exciting opportunity for Oakley to celebrate our relationship with OneSight in our first-ever Regional Eye Care Clinic. We are so greatful for the support of experienced OneSight volunteers that will be team members on this trip!
We are also grateful to Walking Shield for helping to set up this clinic and to North Coast Church in Vista, CA for hosting the clinic!
From February 15-20, we will post daily stories and pictures from our clinic experience! We are so excited to share this experience with you and hope you will log on to keep up on our activities.
For those of you who may not be familiar with OneSight, I will provide a little background...

Sponsored by Luxottica Group, OneSight programs have helped nearly 7 million people over its 20-year history.
