From the
Atlantic's
photoessay on recycling. "Ohio State University optometry student Patrick Milleson poses in a sea of old and used glasses at the optometry college, in Columbus, Ohio, on May 27, 2010. Eyeglasses that are collected from donation bins in stores are shipped to the OSU optometry school and the students sort, clean and donate them to those in need."
