We are bringing sight to millions of Canadians with uncorrected poor vision

In Schools
86% of children under 6 have never had an eye exam, and 80% of learning occurs through vision. Our school screening and exam programs bring better vision to students in the neediest schools.
In Communities
Our programs break down barriers to access to vision care in underserved and remote communities, bringing improved lives through improved sight to those needing the most help.
In All Provinces
We work with partners across Canada to raise awareness of the importance of vision care, promote research into poor vision and its consequences, and champion the cause of vision as a priority at all levels.
