Manufacturing
OneSight believes in giving our very best to those who need it most. Last year, OneSight
launched a new Manufacturing Clinic model where volunteers produced complete pairs
of new eyewear in prescription ranges most commonly needed for Global Clinic patients.
This model was part of two Clinics in 2012 - Chile and Mexico. Both Vision Clinics featured
100% new eyewear and OneSight will continue to expand this model in 2013.
Mobile Vision
Van Clinics
To reach students and populations living in remote locations, OneSight hosted 27 Vision
Van Clinics in the U.S. in 2012. OneSight’s 40-foot Vision Van, EyeLeen, is a complete
optical lab on wheels, equipped with everything needed to provide eye exams and new
eyewear. More than 20,000 students who visited the van last year received new
prescription eyewear onsite.
Research
and Education
Significant investments are granted each year for research and education through the
OneSight Research Foundation in North America. Last year, the Foundation granted
250,000 USD towards pediatric and diabetic eye diseases and awarded 40,000 USD
in scholarships to 20 students pursuing a degree in Optometry.
