Before DAVIS, JONES, and DeMOSS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Guillermo Travis Harper, Texas prisoner # 871629, appeals
from the district court’s order granting summary judgment in favor
of Travis County in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint. Harper argues
that Travis County maintained a policy of denying inmates eye
examinations and eyeglasses unless they prepaid for them and that
this policy violated his constitutional right to adequate medical
care. We have reviewed the record and the briefs of the parties,
and we conclude that the district court committed no reversible
error. Harper’s allegations do not meet his burden of producing

evidence showing the existence of a genuine issue for trial
regarding municipal liability. See Little v. Liquid Air Corp., 37
F.3d 1069, 1075 (5th Cir. 1994) (en banc). Accordingly, the
district court’s judgment is AFFIRMED. Harper’s motions to add
defendants are DENIED.
