Donating Old Glasses

    Hi, I have about 5 old pairs of glasses that I would like to donate but my local optician won't take them. Does anyone know of any opticians in Dublin who take glasses for recycling or sending to Vision Aid Overseas (charity that collect from opticians).

    Thanks,
    Alli

    Well, I'm totally certain that SpecSavers, the one off O'Connell St anyway, have a donation box.

    Does anyone know if these are donated to people in need or are they simple recycled? Thanks :)
