About Sight for All United

Since 2016, Sight for All United has transformed vision care access with one powerful mission: to help every person reach their vision potential and lift the barriers that can limit access to care. What began with providing critical eye surgeries and medications has blossomed into an award-winning organization touching thousands of lives across all ages.

Each year, thousands of students struggle with vision problems, yet two-thirds never see an eye doctor or receive the glasses they desperately need. This reality inspired us to expand our reach, culminating in the Valley's first in-school mobile vision van - bringing care directly to children who need it most.

Today, guided by our exceptional team of staff, board members, eye care professionals, and volunteers, we channel our passion into three vital areas: surgery and medical assistance, comprehensive school programs, and compassionate low vision support - because we believe clear vision is not a privilege, but a right for all.

Our Mission

Sight for All United helps every person reach their vision potential and lifts barriers for access to care.
