Optometry Giving Sight

Optometry Giving Sight is the only global fundraising initiative that specifically targets the prevention of blindness and impaired vision due to uncorrected refractive error – simply the need for an eye exam and a pair of glasses. More than 600 million people around the world are blind or vision impaired because they do not have access to the eye examination and glasses they need.  Optometry Giving Sight helps to fund the solution by supporting programs that:

•     Train – local eye care professionals and;
•     Establish – vision centres for sustainability to;
•     Deliver – eye care and low cost glasses.

Sight can make the difference between a life of poverty and a life of opportunity.
