my power changed and i have around 25 pieces of Cooper vision 1 DAY lenses
power 225
Put it up on Carousell, state that it's FOC and tell whoever wants it, it's first come first served, please contact you early for an appointment to collect...

Another way is to donate it to Salvation Army but make sure you pack it nicely. Their Collection Point seems messy....and you risk having expensive items being tossed or thrown about like it's an old Barbie doll .

A third way is a direct donation to foreigners in lowly paid jobs. Am sure you know where to find them.....

Mdm,

Best place to put is in Carousell as a free item
yeah can but was hoping there is some organization accepting

coz you CAN donate used spectacles



just such a hassle dealing wth carousel peeps
also i give free
never know if the receiver will resell
throw away
don't harm people eye
Not any Tom Dick, and Harry use contact lenses leh. Doubt that those regular users are skinflints.

But first you need to tell what degree of power is the contact lens.... Big Grin
