Hi Friend,
Over 1.8 billion adults worldwide live with presbyopia, age-related vision loss that typically begins in their forties. As the world slips out of focus, daily tasks – sorting stones from beans, repairing torn fabric, reading medicine labels – become real constraints.
These small losses compound into a $25 billion global economic burden. Despite this scale, presbyopia remains one of the most neglected problems in global health.
The solution costs just 80 cents. A single pair of reading glasses can deliver immediate results. Yet millions of adults can't access them – especially in places where they'd have the greatest impact.
That's why we’re piloting reading glasses distribution in Uganda this year, testing which delivery models could scale nationwide.

** Inside The Accelerator
------------------------------------------------------------
Evidence Action's Accelerator ([link removed]) identifies breakthrough health solutions, tests them rigorously, and builds evidence for government-led scale. From safe water to vision care, we focus on interventions with extraordinary impact per dollar spent.
Reading glasses represent exactly this approach: proven intervention, clear need, strong government demand — we're generating evidence that the delivery model works at scale.
Your support bridges the gap between a simple solution and the millions who can't access it.
