KidSight MO

07/27/2026

Hey Poplar Bluff! 👋🏼 We’ll see you tomorrow at the library for FREE vision screenings starting at 11am. Screenings are available for children, ages 6 months and up, and they only take a few seconds.

Don't forget that KidSight MO will be at the Main Branch TOMORROW for free vision screenings.

These screenings are great for shy and young children. From the KidSight website: "KidSight uses a portable, automated vision screener that can detect common causes of childhood vision problems. The device takes a photo of the child’s eyes from three feet away and a KidSight screening technician is immediately given a “pass” or “refer” result. The child does not have to say anything and the screening only takes a few seconds."

Make a change with your spare change! 🪙💙

When you shop at Walmart, Gerbes, Dillons, or Kroger, you can round up your purchase to support KidSight. Those few extra cents add up to more vision screenings, care coordination, and resources for Missouri children who need help seeing clearly.

Small change. Big impact.

We’re proud to partner with KeraLink International to help ensure that a vision screening is just the beginning.

For children like Naiara, early identification opens the door to care, resources, and a clearer view of the world around them. 💙

Naiara’s story did not end at a screening. It started there.

Through our partnership with Saving KidSight, children are identified early and connected to the care they need.

After her screening in Missouri, Naiara received her first pair of glasses through KeraLink Eyewear, turning a simple check into clear vision for everyday life.

Screenings open the door. Access makes the difference.

Sunglasses aren't just a fashion statement! They help protect our eyes from harmful UV rays and support lifelong eye health. Whether you're heading to the park, the pool, or just enjoying a sunny day, don't forget to shade your eyes!

At KidSight, we're committed to helping children see their best and develop healthy vision habits that last a lifetime. Stay shady. Stay protected. 😎
