We’re Making The Invisible Problem Visible

One in four children in the U.S. have a vision problem that affects their ability to learn.

One in four. That’s millions of children who could be living in a blurred existence and don’t even know it. Children who can’t see the board or the ball or the road ahead.

Vision is an invisible problem because often
children don’t recognize their vision is impaired.

To them, blurred vision is normal. Children rely on their parents, teachers and community to be advocates for their vision care and together we can give these children a better life through better sight.

That’s why the Essilor Vision Foundation (EVF) partners with schools, eye care professionals, non-profit charities and people like you to provide vision exams and glasses to children in need.

We are working together to help children reach their full potential.

We’re making the invisible problem visible by bringing awareness, access and affordability to the issue but we need your support.

Awareness
Vision impairment is one of the most prevalent disabling conditions among children in the U.S.
Access
80% of all vision impairment can be prevented or cured.
Affordability
Nearly a quarter of parents don’t have the financial resources for their kids’ full vision exams.

We’ve made it our mission to equip today’s youth by giving them the tools they need to see and succeed.

Partner with us to improve the vision in your community and join our cause today because so much of the world is worth seeing.
