Early intervention is crucial to ensuring children have access to proper vision care in their formative years.
Undiagnosed vision issues can significantly impact children’s lives, persisting into adulthood, affecting: (a) academic potential, (b) limiting career opportunities, (c) self-esteem and social connections, (d) reducing overall quality of life, and (e) impacting mortality rates.

Empowering Communities
Our mission centers on championing children’s eye health and education.
Through focused educational initiatives, we empower communities by training teachers, parents, and leaders to identify potential vision issues in children.
By fostering awareness and providing training, we build a network of informed individuals capable of conducting future screenings for early intervention.
Comprehensive Eye Exams
Ensuring children’s visual health is critical for well-being and academic success.
Our focus extends beyond correcting vision issues to addressing conditions impacting learning and development.
Through compassionate eye care, we empower children to see clearly, unlocking their full potential for a brighter future.
Transformative Eye Wear
We boost children’s confidence with comfortable eyeglasses that enhance visual acuity and empowering their individual style.
By providing eyewear to those in need, our aim is to enable clarity and turn improved vision into a stepping stone for future success.
We extend our appreciation to Clear Vision Optical in Kelowna, Canada, for generously donating frames for our upcoming mission. We are grateful for their commitment and support to making a positive difference.
Colima, Mexico
In Spring 2024, our inaugural mission will take place at Hogar De Amor, an orphanage in Colima, Mexico. We are excited about making a meaningful impact in collaboration with the local community, aiming to make a positive impact to the long-term eye health and well-being of 300+ children.
Kisumu, Kenya & Kampala, Uganda
We are in talks with the Mondetta Charity Foundation to perform eye care services to 2,000+ children at an orphanage in Kisumu, Kenya and a school in Kampala, Uganda.
Over a decade ago, while navigating the demands and challenges of optometry school, I co-founded Eye For India, a charity that impacted 1,000 patients and distributed 800 pairs of eyeglasses in multiple, rural communities across South India.
Building on the lessons I learned during this charitable work and fueled by my desire to expand the impact, in 2023, I founded and launched One World • Two Eyes, which focuses on early intervention and proactive care for children’s eye health, in orphanages and schools, globally in underserved communities.
Committed to eradicating preventable blindness, my charity aims for lasting global impact on eye health by empowering every child with the gift of clear vision.
