VisionSpring

VisionSpring is the pioneering, international social enterprise accelerating the uptake of affordable eyeglasses among people who earn less than $4 per day.

Founded in 2001, VisionSpring uncovers latent demand for vision correction; conducts community, workplace and school vision screenings and trains others to do the same; and supplies radically affordable, durable eyeglasses. VisionSpring has distributed 8.7 million pairs of eyeglasses, providing vision correction in 53 countries with more than 600 NGO, corporate, government, and health partners.
