Of the approximately three million children living in Michigan, more than one million of them will need eye care by the time they reach high school graduation age. Some 10,000 of these children are entering school each year with inadequate vision.  Hearing and vision screening is required before entering kindergarten. Hearing and vision screening is available through the Barry-Eaton District Health Department free of charge for preschool – school age children.

An Eaton County clinic is set for Friday, Sept. 9 at the BEDHD office in Charlotte. Call 517-541-2630 to schedule an appointment.
