See and Make a Difference this Holiday Season

Thomas Eye Group is donating $50 to The Drake House for every LASIK procedure completed this holiday season.

Thomas Eye Group, a leading eye care provider with 7 locations in the greater Atlanta area, is donating $50 to The Drake House for every LASIK procedure completed by its LASIK team this holiday season. The Drake House provides short-term crisis housing, education, and empowerment programs for homeless mothers and their children in north metro Atlanta.

Over the past 10 years since its founding, The Drake House has helped change the lives of over 1,100 women
and children who were homeless. Women and children entering The Drake House are offered a variety of support services to empower and educate them and move them towards self-sufficiency.

“We greatly appreciate Thomas Eye Group for providing funds that are critical to helping our families regain
stability in their lives,” said Kathy Swahn, executive director of The Drake House.

LASIK surgery is an extremely popular option for eliminating the need for contacts and eyeglasses. More than 15 million Americans have undergone this safe and effective vision correction technique since it was granted FDA approval in the late 1990s. Thomas Eye Group was one of the first to perform LASIK under FDA protocol, and its experienced physicians have performed more than 25,000 vision correction procedures.

“We are dedicated to giving back by supporting organizations that positively impact our communities, so
this holiday promotion is a natural fit for us,” said Rod Roeser, CEO for Thomas Eye Group.
