"We envision communities where everyone has access to quality eye care, education, and the power to make informed decisions—breaking cycles of blindness, poverty, and fear.”

OUR MISSION

"Bringing eyecare to your community."

To bring accessible, quality eye care directly to communities - restoring sight, empowering individuals, and breaking the cycle of preventable blindness.It is our mission to enhance the welfare and livelihood of vulnerable people through social and economic empowerment, focusing mainly on children, youth and women.

OUR VISION

“To see a community that can say they have access to eyecare… regardless of geographic location or income level. Without education, there is no health.”

We envision a world where no one is left behind because of geography or income. A world where everyone—especially women, children, and the elderly—can access life-changing eye care and make informed decisions about their health. Where restored vision unlocks education, employment, and equality.

“We’ve lived there. We understand the life, the culture, the language.”
