VSP Eyes of Hope gift certificates are distributed in the U.S. through our national network of approved community partners. We partner with qualified non-profit organizations to ensure that adults and children in need have access to quality eye care and new prescription glasses at no cost through a local VSP Network doctor.
Available Programs
Current Partners If you’re a member, chapter, or affiliate of one of our current partners, you can request VSP Eyes of Hope gift certificates to distribute in your community. Review the guidelines.
Important Note: If you previously ordered VSP Sight for Students® or VSP Eyes of Hope Materials-only gift certificates, please request VSP Eyes of Hope gift certificates. We've made the program easier to administer, and you no longer need to order separate types of gift certificates for adults and children, or for materials-only coverage.

VSP Eyes of Hope mobile clinics travel the U.S. in partnership with local charitable organizations and VSP network doctors to provide no-cost eye exams and glasses for adults and children in need. Each clinic is outfitted with an eye exam room and portable exam equipment to provide comprehensive eye exams, an eyewear dispensary stocked with popular frame brands from Marchon and Altair, and an optical finishing lab with lenses donated by VSP Optics. Patients will receive their glasses the same day if they can be made on-board; otherwise, they'll be ordered from a VSPOne® optical lab and delivered to the partner within a few weeks.
