Joseph Carbone, a board certified optician since 1975 and the Founder and President of EyeCare4Kids™, a nonprofit organization that is dedicated to providing as many kids who lack access to professional eye care services with comprehensive eye exams and glasses joins eHealth Radio and the Children's Health & Eye Health Channels.
Listen to interview with host Eric Michaels & guest Joseph Carbone discuss the following:
Today we’re here to learn more about the importance of regular vision care in children. Is there significant unmet need in children and why are missed vision screenings a problem?
What is EyeCare4Kids and why did you start this non-profit organization?
How does EyeCare4Kids provide services to under-resourced children and their families?
Can you share a story of the impact your organization has on your patients? What are some of the immediate and longer-term benefits?
How can people learn more about EyeCare4Kids?
Summary: Studies show that good vision is vital to a child’s success at school, among peers, and to participate in extracurricular activities. However, 1 in 4 children in the United States have imperfect vision in the United States, which is a problem given that 80 percent of a child's learning happening through the eyes. Further, vision problems are more than double than the national average in high-poverty neighborhoods. My advice to parents is to make sure that vision care is part of your child’s annual list of check-ups, either by visiting EyeCare4Kids directly, or finding a similar resource in your community.
A board-certified optician since 1975, Joseph Carbone is the founder and president of the non-profit organization, EyeCare4Kids™. Focused on rural and underserved areas, including indigenous, immigrant, and refugee communities mostly in Utah, Arizona, Idaho, New Mexico, and Nevada, with plans to expand into California and New Jersey, EyeCare4Kids provides professional eye care to low-income, visually impaired children and underserved families through five community-based clinics, annual school-based clinics, and a mobile vision van that travels to community locations across the southwest. Since its founding in 2001, the organization has helped more than 400,000 children whose families cannot afford or face barriers to seeking out regular eye exams and corrective glasses, when needed.

Brian Seth Hurst, an acclaimed author, speaker, and transformation coach whose book WHOLE has inspired countless individuals to achieve personal growth and inner peace joins eHealth Radio and the Health News and Personal Development Channels.

What inspired you to write WHOLE, and how does it guide readers toward self-transformation and better health?
Can you share one belief or practice from your book that listeners can implement today to improve their mental or emotional well-being?
Many people struggle with stress and uncertainty. What advice do you have for finding balance and maintaining inner peace in challenging times?

How does the audiobook format enhance the experience of WHOLE, especially for busy individuals looking to focus on their well-being?
For someone just beginning their journey toward self-improvement, what is the first step you recommend to start becoming 'whole'?
Brian Seth Hurst wasn’t in his university’s philosophy class the day metaphysics was defined. Little did he know that discovering what lies beyond the visible world would become a lifelong avocation. Balancing the study of life with the business of life has led Brian to describe himself as a “metapractical” man.
Hurst had essentially two professional sides to his life—one as a successful entertainment executive, and the other as an intuitive counselor and coach. For years, these roles remained separate until a wake-up call led to the creation of "WHOLE," a collection of powerful essays that examines how beliefs serve, or do not serve, us in our lives, how those beliefs can be transformed to change our circumstances, and the power of the ultimate connection to Source.
A well-regarded international entertainment professional and prominent figure in the world of media, storytelling, and immersive experiences, he is known for his work as a producer, strategist, and writer, with a focus on pioneering new forms of content and storytelling techniques. Hurst has been at the forefront of the intersection between traditional media and emerging technologies, particularly in areas like virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and cross-platform storytelling. He has held leadership positions at The Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, the International Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, and the Producers Guild of America.
As a transition and transformation coach Hurst draws on his 40 years of experience in the areas of business and personal growth. His WHOLE Lifeworks™ program has empowered people in all walks of life to define their purpose and meaningful work in their lives.
Brian’s last literary adventure was as co-author, alongside Olivia Newton-John, of the best-selling children’s book “A Pig Tale.”
