Over two-thirds of the U.S. adult population use corrective devices for vision problems. Yet only 25% of the people who need vision correction currently have access to a vision program.
Even more critical, approximately 50,000 people will lose their sight this year because of diseases like cataracts and age-related macular degeneration—problems that could have been identified with annual eye exams. And, with an eye on the bigger picture, regular vision care can provide early detection of health conditions like diabetes, hypertension, glaucoma and many others.
