doing free glasses clinics in the states.</U></B><U> </U> This will help many people who are struggling to provide for their family due to the pandemic.   Being able to see is so incredibly important for the poor and underserved people in this country  These free clinics have been done in states like: Tennessee, Missouri, Illinois, Kansas, Arkansas, Colorado, Louisiana, Texas, Michigan, Indiana and many other states.  We can do the clinic in Kentucky as long as we have an optometrist or ophthalmologist working with us.  We can provide everything you need to do these clinics.</div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <B><U>Please Notice</U></B></div> <div> Due to the pandemic 44 teams have cancelled their reservation for a kit for 2020.  Ten teams have cancelled their reservation for 2021 with only 10 signed up.  In 2022 only 49 teams signed up but now eleven of those teams have cancelled.  In 2023 we have 60 teams who have signed up to use the equipment and 14 teams have cancelled. In 2024 we have 44 teams signed up but 4 have cancelled.  Few teams are ordering glasses.  However, our measurement team is still working.   Most of the team work out of their home but several of them work in churches.  At this point we have available nearly 600 pairs of used prescription glasses all measured, barcode labeled and ready to send to the teams.  When we have used readers they are every bit like new.   I doubt you can tell the difference.  These glasses can be purchased for $.35 each plus S&H. The measurement team continues to measure but it requires money for us to provide them with supplies.</div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <B><U>Read About our Gift of Sight Book.</U></B><FONT SIZE="4" COLOR="#111111" FACE="Arial" > </FONT></div> <div> <TABLE BORDER="2" CELLPADDING="2" CELLSPACING="1" WIDTH="843" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#C0C0C0" BORDERCOLORDARK="#808080" FRAME="BOX" RULES="ALL" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 407 WIDTH="568"><div> Imagine if you couldn't see; imagine all the visual wonders that you would miss because your vision was so poor. For some, getting our eyes checked and the right prescription of glasses is affordable and allows us to see these visual wonders of God's creation, but for others, this could be a dream they believe will never come true.</div> <bR> <div> Author Holland Kendall writes how God led him to start his own optometry ministry to help the vision needs of those less fortunate in Honduras, Nicaragua and around the world in his new book, The Gift of Sight.</div> <bR> <div> The stories in The Gift of Sight show how God can move people to help those around them for the better. As we help others, we not only forget about our own problems but appreciate the blessing that it is to see.   You can purchase the book on Amazon.com from this <A

In 2010 the company purchased two more kits.  In 2011 the company purchased 1 more kit bringing the total to 13.  By 2017 the company had purchased 18 kits.  In 2018 KOM purchased kit number 19.  Later we had to sell this kit to bring money into the company.   See the growth of the company at this <A HREF="http://kendall-optometry-ministry.com/documents/KOM-Usage-2004-2018.pdf" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://kendall-optometry-ministry.com/do"><U><B><U>link.</U></B></U></A>  2018 is only part of the year on this graph.  Other teams will participate.  The teams use this equipment to not only allow people to read their Bible but to also to help them improve their standard of living.  You can read about some of these teams in the <A HREF="id2.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Teams Supported"><U><B>Teams Supported</B></U></A> area of this web site.</div> <bR> <div> Tell us about your Christian mission team.  Let us help you be more effective in your work for the Lord.  If you would like our help send an E-Mail to:  <A HREF="mailto:hollandkendall@kendalloptoministry.org" TARGET="_top" TITLE="mailto:hollandkendall@kendalloptoministr"><U><B>HollandKendall@kendalloptoministry.org</B></U></A></div> <bR> <div> Holland Kendall, President</div> <div> Kendall Optometry Ministry, Inc.</div> <div> 11/19/2020</div> <bR> <div> Click<A HREF="id25.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="About US"><U> </U></A><A HREF="id25.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="About US"><U><B>here</B></U></A> to learn more about us.</div> <bR> <div> <TABLE BORDER="2" CELLPADDING="2" CELLSPACING="1" WIDTH="692" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#C0C0C0" BORDERCOLORDARK="#808080" FRAME="BOX" RULES="ALL" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 124 ><NOBR><div> <I><B>Kendall Optometry Ministry, Inc.</B></I></div> <div> <I><B>             (</B></I><I><B><U>Helping you help them see</U></B></I><I><B>)</B></I></div> <div> <A HREF="http://kendall-optometry-ministry.com/documents/KendallAd2.PDF" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://kendall-optometry-ministry.com/do"><U><I><B>Click below graphic for latest company advertisement</B></I></U></A><I><B>.</B></I></div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 193 WIDTH="680"><div> <A HREF="http://kendall-optometry-ministry.com/documents/KendallAd2.PDF" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://kendall-optometry-ministry.com/do"><U><IMG SRC="4927ca00.jpg" border=0 width="124" height="160" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></U></A></div> <div> <B>  </B><A HREF="http://kendall-optometry-ministry.com/documents/KendallAd2.PDF" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://kendall-optometry-ministry.com/do"><U><B>(Click to enlarge)</B></U></A></div> </tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> <div>  <A NAME="announcements"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="1" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="1" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" ></A>Announcements:</div> <div> <TABLE BORDER="2" CELLPADDING="2" CELLSPACING="1" WIDTH="689" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#C0C0C0" BORDERCOLORDARK="#808080" FRAME="BOX" RULES="ALL" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 34 ><NOBR><div> <B>                       ANNOUNCEMENT     </B><FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#FF0000" FACE="Arial" ><B>(Last updated:  11/26/2021)</B></FONT></div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 706 WIDTH="677"><div> <B>Eyeglasses Inventory Program</B> now supports the Topcon RK-3000 Autorefractor.  The total list supported includes the  Retinomax, Retinomax 2, Retinomax 3, Burton Velo 20/10, Canon RK-2 (possibly R-30), Humphrey 597, Topcon KR-3000, Topcon KR-7000, Welch Allyn Suresight, Shin Nippon 8100, Reichert RK600, Marco Nidek ARK 20/30, Marco Nidek Handyref.  (12 different models)  There is possible support for the Topcon RK-3500, and 7000 series by emulating older models.  New features have been added which increase the number of valid matches and record a history of patient measurements.  Also the wizard has been enhanced and a new feature called "Practice Play" has been added also with an automatic optometrist analysis of every prescription measured.  The program now allows you to both list and then remove all readers from your inventory to increase the probability of a match.  Automatic refresh of the removal list has been added along with special protection against the initiation of duplicate copies of the program.

It can also flag glasses as Readers to prevent you from putting them into inventory so you can reserve your space for prescription glasses.  They are kept with readers and matched to the patient using reading charts which we provide.  The program now allows you to both list and then remove all readers from your inventory to increase the probability of a match.  Special protection against the initiation of duplicate copies of the program.
