WHY VISION SOLUTIONS ACT ABOUT US DONATE My OneSight FAQS FAQS FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (AND OUR ANSWERS) ABOUT ONESIGHT WHAT IS ONESIGHT? We’re an independent nonprofit committed to eradicating the global vision care crisis in our lifetime. Since 1988, OneSight has helped over 9 million people in 46 countries. WHAT IS THE GLOBAL VISION CARE CRISIS? OneSight partnered with Deloitte to conduct an extensive study and determined that 1.1 billion people worldwide suffer from vision loss and lack access to vision care. For all of them, vision can be restored with a simple pair of glasses. WHAT IS THE ONESIGHT SOLUTION? We establish permanent vision centers and conduct charitable clinics around the world. Learn more about our solution here. RECEIVING AND DONATING EYEWEAR WHAT IF I OR SOMEONE I KNOW NEEDS GLASSES? Through OneSight’s OnSite Voucher Program, eligible patients can receive glasses free of charge. The patient should: Have their visual and financial need verified by a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization (such as a school, church, Lions Club, Prevent Blindness, Red Cross, or United Way). Obtain a referral letter from the nonprofit (letter should be on company letterhead and include the Tax ID# for the nonprofit). Take the referral letter issued by the nonprofit as well as a valid prescription to a participating Luxottica Retail Location (LensCrafters, Target Optical or Pearle Vision corporate store) to receive a pair of glasses at no charge. If the patient does not already have a valid prescription (one that is less than 2 years old) he or she can ask if the onsite doctor at the optical retailer is able to donate an eye exam or they can reach out to Prevent Blindness for assistance. CAN I DONATE MY USED EYEWEAR? While OneSight dispenses 100% new eyewear to patients, we do accept eyewear donations. Donated eyewear is sent to several Lions organizations and is used to support their domestic and international programming. Small quantities of collected eyewear can be dropped off at your local LensCrafters, Target Optical or Pearle Vision locations. Large quantities should be shipped at the donor’s expense directly to the eyewear processing center: Optical Village OneSight Center 9924 International Blvd., Dock 22 Cincinnati, Ohio 45246 PROGRAM DETAILS CAN I VOLUNTEER FOR A ONESIGHT CLINIC? Thank you for your interest in OneSight clinics! Currently clinic trip participants are chosen in partnership with Luxottica, the world’s foremost eyewear company. Luxottica employees can log onto my.onesight.org to apply for a clinic trip here.

OneSight believes in giving its very best to those that need it most. This belief led us to evaluate the use of recycled eyewear on Vision Clinics and we discovered: Less than 10% of collected eyewear met our strict quality standards Only 2 countries on OneSight’s 2013 Clinic schedule allowed the use of refurbished glasses.

Our charitable Vision Clinic schedule is set 1-2 years out and at this time we are not adding locations. OneSight looks at several factors in bringing care to specific regions including visual and financial need, access to vision care, strong in-country partners and the potential to build long-term sustainable projects. We will continue to evaluate and assess other areas to expand OneSight programming. I WOULD LIKE TO PURCHASE SPECIAL PRICE VOUCHERS. HOW DO I DO THAT? LensCrafters and Lions Club have had a long standing partnership over the years. Lions Clubs around the U.S. have historically purchased Special Priced Voucher books to help support OneSight and offset the cost of providing free eyewear to those in need. These vouchers were redeemable at LensCrafters locations only. Due to recent changes to the frame product assortment in stores, the LensCrafters Special Price Voucher Program is currently under review and OneSight is not issuing any more special priced vouchers at this time. All orders and checks will be returned within 2 weeks of receipt. Any special priced vouchers already issued should be honored at LensCrafters.
