VSP® Eyes of Hope® was founded more than 25 years ago to increase equitable access to eye care and eyewear for people in need.
Today, 1.1 billion people worldwide live with vision impairment and can’t get the care they need. To address this disparity, VSP Eyes of Hope removes barriers of income, distance, and disaster to bring vision care where it’s needed most within the U.S. and beyond. To date, VSP Eyes of Hope has provided access to no-cost vision care for more than 4.3 million people. We’re accelerating health equity through programs that increase equitable access to vision care, aid communities affected by disaster, and invest in the optometrists of the future.
Our Eyes of Hope programs and initiatives provide equitable access to no-cost eye care and eyewear.
We help restore sight and hope to communities affected by disasters by partnering with disaster relief organizations and optometrists.
Our employees are empowered to make a positive impact in their communities and invest in partnerships and initiatives that improve access to healthcare and other social risk factors, such as education, nutrition, economic stability, and overall wellbeing.
We support and promote the optometric profession by offering a variety of programs and services designed to help optometry students and new graduates reach their career goals.
