In areas of sub-Saharan Africa, many people are visually disabled simply because they lack eyeglasses. The consequences are devastating and far-reaching: children are unable to learn, and adults are unable to read, tend their crops, or run their businesses.

Vision to Africa was created to help eradicate uncorrected refractive error (URE) in sub-Saharan Africa by providing low-or no-cost eyeglasses for those in need. 

In regions where people can walk days for medical treatment, we aim to provide an examination and dispense custom prescription eyeglasses in a single visit, without the need for advanced technology or scarce medical professionals.
