Since our founding over 40 years ago, Orbis International has been committed to meeting people where they are—in their communities, in their schools, and even virtually—to ensure healthy vision for all.
Through the generosity of supporters like you, Orbis is the only eye care nonprofit delivering sight-saving programs in over 200 countries and territories.
Not only do we focus on fighting preventable and treatable vision impairment worldwide, but we’re also building lasting eye health systems that can deliver the type of care needed for generations to come.
The need is still great: over 1 billion people live with avoidable vision loss, including over 90 million who are children and adolescents. Yet, the solution for many preventable eye problems is within reach. A simple pair of prescription glasses is often all it takes to restore sight.
And saving vision does more than transform a single life; it helps whole communities. In places where eye care is out of reach, Orbis provides resources, care, and support so people can return to school, work, and daily life. It’s one of the most effective ways to break the cycle of poverty and create lasting change.
Your generosity today will help more children, adults, and families get the vision care they need to complete school, pursue meaningful work, and break the cycle of poverty.
