Bringing Light to Lives

Restoring Vision, Renewing Hope

The Gift of Sight Program provides eye care services, including screenings, treatments, and cataract surgeries, to restore vision and improve the quality of life for individuals in need.

GIFT OF SIGHT

Impact

Millions of people in underserved communities suffer from preventable blindness and vision impairment due to limited access to eye care services, treatments, and surgeries. Conditions like cataracts, glaucoma, and refractive errors go untreated, severely impacting individuals' quality of life, education, and employment opportunities. The Gift of Sight Program is addressing this urgent need by operating in Nigeria and Tanzania, where it provides free cataract surgeries to restore vision for those who cannot afford treatment. Locally in Canada, the program supports low-income individuals by providing them with free eyeglasses, ensuring they can see clearly and lead independent lives. Through these efforts, the Gift of Sight Program is transforming lives by giving the gift of clear vision to those in need.
