Chef Charlie Doman of Moe Joe's in Plainfield, Illinois is legally blind. His community raised thousands to replace his missing electronic glasses.

PLAINFIELD, Ill. -- Charlie Doman, chef and manager at Moe Joe's in Plainfield, Illinois, has a huge fan base. His boss, Jamie Littell, may be his biggest fan of all.

"It was terrifying," Doman said."I had to learn everything all over again. Showering, using the bathroom, walking." Despite being legally blind, Doman has a very narrow field of vision. He wears IrisVision electronic glasses to help enhance what little sight he has left so he can read order tickets and recipes. But during an event at the restaurant in April of this year, those glasses came up missing.

"We came up with the pie idea, Executive Chef Ryan and myself," Littell said."And it rhymed with 'eyes,' 'Pies For Eyes.'"
