Essilor Vision Foundation focuses on eliminating poor vision and its lifelong consequences and providing underprivileged people the opportunity to live a better life through better sight.
Expanding global reach
Since its creation in 2007 in the United States, Essilor Vision Foundation has expanded its reach by establishing local entities in Australia & New Zealand, ASEAN (headquartered in Singapore), Canada, China and India, supporting programs across the Americas, Africa and Asia.

Essilor Vision Foundation dedicates significant resources to vision care programs
enabling children to perform better at school as well as improving the visual health of other disadvantaged communities. As part of the Special Olympics Healthy Eyes program, Essilor volunteers have helped screen more than 400,000 children and adults with intellectual disabilities and improve their vision with prescription eyewear, sunglasses and other sports equipment.

Since 2013, Essilor has been exploring different inclusive business models to solve the issue of access to vision care by creating the infrastructure to serve ‘base of the pyramid’ consumers.
