Many children from Cleveland’s Broadway-Slavic Village neighborhood were given a priceless gift on Thursday: the gift of better sight.
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Matthew Dellavedova and his wife, Anna, held a Vision Day at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, hosting 150 kids from University Settlement. Every child received a free vision screening from Cleveland Clinic practitioners, and if it was determined they needed glasses, they were able to meet with a doctor on-site to determine their prescriptions. They even got to pick out their new frames, which were provided for free by the Essilor Vision Foundation Changing Life Through Lenses program.
