One in four kids naturally needs glasses to see the board, read a book, or participate in class; in underserved communities, up to 95% of kids who need glasses do not have them. Millions of students nationwide and 30,000+ children in Los Angeles lack the vision care/glasses they need to succeed in school and life. Vision to Learn (VTL) provides mobile optometric screenings, exams, and glasses for students in need via a scalable clinic program that allows students to receive the vision care without taking time away from the school day.
