Two of the optical industry’s most respected names have found common ground in a shared conviction: that access to quality vision care has the power to transform lives.

Doctors Vision Group supports Optometry Giving Sight through our TEAM OGS program by donating a portion of every pair of glasses sold. Through the Pick-a-Pair initiative, each purchase helps fund sustainable vision care around the world.

Sustainable vision care requires two things working in parallel: the systems that make eye care accessible, and the people with the skills and conviction to build and defend those systems. Two OGS-funded projects illustrate exactly that — one laying the groundwork for a national eye health plan in Zanzibar, the other training the next generation of optometry advocates across six continents.

Optometry Giving Sight (OGS) is pleased to announce the appointment of Javier Prada-López, OD, to its Board of Directors.

Through a generous in-kind partnership, Jobson helps OGS stay top-of-mind across this distinguished network, fostering an ongoing presence in the publications optometrists read every day.

Some partnerships are built in a single dramatic moment. This one was built over nearly twenty years of steady support from Oxford Eye Clinic. When we reached out for a quote, the team at Oxford Eye Clinic gave us far more than we expected — a heartfelt reflection on exactly why this work matters to them.

Updates from four very different projects with a single throughline: the establishment and strengthening of optometry schools themselves. Spanning Nigeria, Nepal, Vietnam, and a network of Francophone countries, these stories showcase the deliberate work of building academic institutions capable of producing optometrists long after any single grant ends.

PECAA has been a committed partner of Optometry Giving Sight since 2017, and in that time, they’ve found a way to make global giving a natural extension of what their members already do.
