What to do with unwanted glasses?

NIMAN · 2024-08-20 21:08:46

I have a few pairs of glasses at home. Some used and since changed prescription, and others brand new which I ordered online and didn't like the style or fit when they arrived. Is there any way to donate them? I'd rather pass on than simply bin them.

Check your local Lions Club they collect them, last time they were taking them at Cork library. Specsavers I think also take donated 2nd hand specs.
