We observe World Sight Day, a reminder of the amazing gift of vision and our collective goal to eliminate blindness.
Sight connects us to everything that makes life beautiful, every color, face, and sunrise. Yet millions worldwide still suffer from preventable or treatable vision loss.

Beauty of Sight believes everyone deserves to see the world clearly. Through awareness, accessible eye care, and unwavering compassion, we work each day to eliminate preventable blindness and bring light into more lives.

Let’s protect the beauty of sight and Create a World Without Blindness.

October highlights vision care during World Blindness Awareness Month.
According to the WHO, over 314 million people worldwide have severe visual impairment, including 37 million who are blind, and 80% of blindness is preventable.

Trachoma remains the leading cause of preventable blindness, affecting about 1.9 million people. Another significant, preventable cause is diabetic retinopathy; proper disease management and regular eye exams are crucial. Early screenings and prompt treatment can help prevent vision loss or slow the progression of the disease.

Beauty of Sight's mission is to restore sight and prevent avoidable blindness. We support innovative vision research, improve access to sight-restoring treatments, expand community screenings and education, and promote eye tissue donation and training. We are Creating a World Without Blindness.

Join us: get screened, spread the word, and support our work.

Innovations That Would Revolutionize Ocular Care and the Future of Ophthalmology.

Eye disorders are a significant public health issue, affecting millions worldwide. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), about 2.2 billion people experience vision impairment or blindness, with at least 1 billion of these cases being preventable or treatable. Additionally, the global rate of vision impairment is likely to rise in the coming years due to an aging population and lifestyle-related factors.

On National Minority Donor Awareness Day, we acknowledge the powerful impact of generosity. Beauty of Sight sincerely thanks every donor and their families who have bravely chosen to share the gift of sight and life. Your kindness not only transforms individual lives, but also uplifts entire families and communities.

This day serves as a powerful reminder of the urgent need for organ, eye, and tissue donation, particularly in minority communities where demand is high but donor registration often falls short. We collaborate with national organizations to raise awareness and encourage individuals from diverse backgrounds to consider becoming donors.

To our donors: We appreciate your dedication to turning compassion into action.

To our recipients: Your renewed hope inspires us to carry out this vital work.

To our community: Let’s collaborate to build a future where everyone can see, live fully, and thrive.
