VisionSpring conducts assessments and studies to build the evidence base that underpins our theory of change. Our goal is for low income people to utilize eyeglasses as a means to improve their daily functioning, productivity and income earning potential, which create the possibility of a more prosperous life.
Our theory of change states “Eyeglasses improve daily functioning, productivity, and earning potential, creating a greater likelihood of a pathway out of poverty.”
Based on the above statement, VisionSpring's programs are designed to advance social impact along three themes: See to Earn for adults to enhance earning potential, See to Learn for school going children so that they learn better, and See to be Safe for truck drivers and allied transport workers so that all road users are safe.
