VSP Eyes of Hope gift certificates, or "vouchers," connect adults and children who qualify with a local VSP network doctor for no-cost access to a comprehensive eye exam and a complete pair of glasses, if prescribed, with single vision or lined multifocal lenses.
Due to the increased demand for this program, we have temporarily paused the distribution of VSP Eyes of Hope gift certificates to our network of partners. We appreciate your patience and will update this page once certificates are available through our community and education partners.
If you already have a VSP Eyes of Hope gift certificate, find a local VSP network doctor where you can make an appointment.
When disaster strikes, essential eyewear may be left behind or damaged, and seeing well can ease recovery following a disaster. VSP Vision has been partnering with the American Red Cross for more than 25 years to provide access to free vision care for community members affected by disaster.
We also provide customized support to doctors whose practices have been damaged or destroyed to restore hope and access to vision care. Together with our employees, we donate and raise funds through special campaigns to aid the first response and community recovery, totaling more than $21.5 million in direct and in-kind support to date.
Our thoughts are with those affected by natural disasters. The resources below can help whenever there's a need.
