    Had to have my glasses repaired so I asked them, they being EYEMART, a U.S. wide business. They send received glasses to a company that reworks them to donate to people who cannot get their own.....

    ....try one of the service clubs in the community.

    Google the Fred Hollows foundation.I'm sure they would love to have them.

    OXFAM.

    We donate the old ones when we buy new ones at our optometrist's office.  The glasses go to people in need in third world countries.

    Lions Club here would be happy to have them.

    My superseded glasses go into a box and is sent to a third world country by the Optometrist  - Specsavers

    I've heard of a charity that takes them in got needy people  (and almost blind in my case). I've got umpteen pairs I need to do something with. Ilk follow your question and see it anybody offers a tangible solution......

    HEB used to have a box next to the Pharmacy to collect used glasses. Check with your local HEB.
