New Eyes for the Needy
New Eyes is a non-profit, non-sectarian volunteer organization that purchases new eyeglasses for poor children and adults in the United States. The organization also recycles donated glasses for distribution to indigent people in developing nations worldwide.
Since 1932, New Eyes has provided clear vision to over 8 million people in the United States and throughout the world.
New Eyes purchases new prescription eyeglasses for low-income individuals in the U.S. through a voucher program. To be eligible for our program, applicants must:
- Have household income at or below 200% of the U.S. Poverty guidelines.
- Have had a recent eye exam with a pupillary distance measurement (or click here to learn how to measure pupillary distance) . New Eyes does not pay for eye exams. Contact Us if you need assistance in locating a source of free or low-cost eye exams.
- Have no other resources available to them to pay for glasses, including federal or state programs or assistance from local charitable organizations.
