Summary
Worldwide, the most common eye problem and a big contributor to school drop out rate's and unemployment is uncorrected vision, with millions of adolescents in the most vulnerable areas lacking sufficient eye testing and necessary care. Children are falling behind in school, therefore leaving them uneducated, unemployed and falling into the cycle of poverty and locking them into a lifetime of disadvantages. By providing children with the gift of vision, they will be given another chance at life
