    Your purchase made an incredible difference to a person’s life!


    With the help of our customers, we donated a total of $1,500,000 worth of glasses through our social initiative between 2013-2016. When our customers purchased their glasses, they helped us make a social impact by bringing clear vision to less fortunate communities who don’t have access to eye-clinics or optometrists.

    Through our social initiative, you've helped us give less fortunate communities better vision on a global scale.


    By working with our strong nonprofit partner, Unite for Sight, we were able to make a genuine difference to less fortunate communities around the world. Individuals in need received the glasses they needed to achieve perfect vision, which in turn, enabled growth and learning within their respective communities.

  • How We Helped

    Through our social initiatives, SmartBuyGlasses donated a pair of glasses for each pair purchased to one of our charity partners directly collaborating with local eye clinics and eye care teams made up of community volunteers.

    Most clinics had outreach teams that sent optometrists into remote villages. In the villages, the local ophthalmic nurses and optometrists examined, diagnosed and provided quality treatment to patients. After the diagnosis, each patient was given a donated pair of personalized prescription frames. The final fitting was performed and we were one step closer to eliminating impaired vision.

  • Who We Worked With

    When we partnered with Unite for Sight, SmartBuyGlasses worked to reduce the number of people in need of visual correction. We have always been driven to make a strong social impact globally.

    Unite for Sight is a non-profit organization dedicated to the worldwide elimination of preventable blindness. Unite for Sight operates eye clinics globally by providing both human and financial resources. We were the sole supplier of eyeglasses to Unite for Sight and every pair of glasses given to Unite for Sight made a positive impact.
