Free Eye Care for Underprivileged Children and Adults
Access to good eye care can make a real difference in a person’s education, work and everyday life. However, many children and adults from underserved communities do not have easy access to eye testing and corrective glasses.
To address this need, Lenskart Foundation has partnered with Bihar Voluntary Health Association (BVHA) to establish a charitable eye care centre at the BVHA facility in Patna. The centre provides free eye testing and corrective glasses to children and adults from underprivileged communities.
Funder: Lenskart Foundation
Location: BVHA Office, Patna, Bihar
Theme: Eye Health
Our Work
The centre brings basic eye care closer to people who may otherwise find it difficult to access such services. BVHA supports the initiative by providing the required facility space and creating awareness among local communities so that more people can benefit from the services.
The centre focuses on:
- Free eye testing for children and adults.
- Identification of common vision problems.
- Provision of corrective glasses to eligible beneficiaries.
- Creating awareness about the importance of regular eye check-ups.
- Encouraging parents and community members to seek timely eye care.
- Reaching underserved families through community awareness and local outreach.
Our Partnership
The partnership between Lenskart Foundation and BVHA combines resources, expertise and community outreach to improve access to basic eye care.
While Lenskart Foundation supports the eye care initiative, BVHA provides the facility and works to create awareness among local communities. Together, the partnership aims to ensure that children and adults who need eye care are able to access these services free of cost.
Our Impact
By providing free eye testing and corrective glasses, the centre is helping people identify vision problems early and improve their ability to learn, work and participate more confidently in everyday life.
Our focus: Free eye testing • Corrective glasses • Child eye care • Adult eye care • Community awareness • Accessible eye services
