“We are not alone. There are many families out there whose children need glasses who can’t afford them.”

Zachary's Story

“At that age, they can’t tell you if anything is blurry. If it’s blurry, it’s probably always been blurry.”

“I am thankful that it was caught. If he had not been screened, I can’t imagine what would have happened.”

James' Story

James' Story

James is now wearing glasses and goes to an eye care professional for regular eye exams to check his progress. Thanks to the detection of his vision problem at a certified Prevent Blindness America vision screening, James will have a chance to be a star on the field and at school.

Valentin's Story

Ty's Story

Unfortunately, vision problems in the classroom are often mistaken for learning problems. As with Valentin, some kids cannot complete their work simply because they cannot see properly. Thanks to early vision screenings conducted by Prevent Blindness America and its affiliates, problems can be found and treated during the crucial years for learning and development.

"Thank you so much for being the first people to detect a problem with Ty’s vision. We had absolutely no idea that anything was wrong before the free eye screening at his preschool. We are so lucky that you provide this free service!"
