                              11th Annual ACVO/StokesRx National Service 
Animal Eye Exam

                              ACVO & Stokes Pharmacy are again pleased to 
announce that ACVO boarded ophthalmologists are offering complimentary 
screening eye examinations to qualified Service and Working Animals, 
throughout the US, Canada and Puerto Rico. Registration is now open and 
closes on April 30th.

                              *Please note: We wanted to keep the 
registration opening consistent from year to year, which means registration 
opens on Sunday this year. There will be no one in the ACVO office until 
Monday to answer calls and clinics may have limited resources and may not be 
able to get back to you right away. Please be patient and expect a response 
early next week.

                              Check qualifications & register

                              LEARN ABOUT THIS GREAT PROGRAM!
                              The ACVO/StokesRx National Service Animal Eye 
Exam event is a philanthropic effort generously provided to the public by 
participating board certified Diplomates of the American College of 
Veterinary Ophthalmologists who donate their time, staff and services to 
provide complimentary screening eye exams to qualified Service and Working 
Animals.

                              This program would not be successful without 
the generosity of our Diplomates and the financial support of our namesake 
sponsor, Stokes Pharmacy, and other valuable sponsors.

                              Over 60,000 qualified Service Animals have 
received these free screening exams over the past ten years. Please 
participate and support our ophthalmologists and sponsors to ensure this 
program continues for future years to come. Read full press release here.

                              ANIMAL QUALIFICATIONS
                              The Service Animal Eye Exam event will provide 
a free screening eye exam to Service and Working Animal groups including: 
All animals formally trained working Service Animals or formally trained 
therapy animals with active registration. Those currently enrolled in a 
formal service animal training program may qualify but is based upon clinic

registration number generated by the online registration. Read all
