According to the World Health Organization, 314 million people worldwide suffer from poor vision simply because they do not have access to or cannot afford care. In some countries, a pair of eyewear costs more than a month’s salary. Poor vision negatively effects a child’s ability to learn in school and robs an adult of independence, mobility and quality of life.

OneSight, A Luxottica Group Foundation, is a family of charitable vision care programs dedicated to improving vision through outreach, research and education. Since 1988, these charitable efforts have provided free vision care and eyewear to more than seven million people in need around the world and have granted millions of dollars towards optical research and education.

Our volunteers give the gift of sight through four program areas:

  • Global Eye Care – We travel to developing countries to hand-deliver much needed, free eye care and eyewear through temporary Optical Clinics.
  • Regional Eye Care –We provide free eye care and new eyewear to those in need in our regions through temporary Optical Clinics and Vision Vans.
  • Community Eye Care –We help recipients in our local communities through in-store and outreach programs.
  • Research & Education - OneSight funds research to address global eye health issues and invests in the next generation of optometric professionals through scholarships and education.

Vision: A world where primary vision care is a reality for everyone.

Mission: To restore and preserve clear vision for the over 314 million adults and children who suffer worldwide from poor vision.
