Local eye screening programs for children in need.
With 1 in 4 children in the United States facing vision impairment, CharityVision introduces "SightBuddies," a school initiative to bring eye care accessibility to low-income children.
We partner with local doctors and school districts to help them see the world with clarity and confidence.
Partners like Eagle Vision, amplify our reach and raise awareness about vision impairment.
Together with CharityVision, YOU can help us gift a pair of glasses for just $10!
Eagle Vision adopted “SightBuddies” & provides free exams to kids in need.

WHY SIGHTBUDDIES?
Poverty, lack of insurance, and other issues prevent access to proper care. To correct this problem, Sightbuddies provides free or low-cost glasses and vision care to school-age children. Your support can help these kids succeed academically and socially, and give them the chance to reach their full potential.
