New Shades, Brighter Futures

Students at Kiserian Primary School in Kajiado County, Kenya show off their “new shades,” which are prescription eyeglasses with transition lenses. These photochromatic lenses darken automatically when exposed to sunlight and clear when the UV source is removed, protecting young eyes from harmful sun rays, which can contribute to the development of cataracts and other eye problems.

Each year, thousands of students receive prescription eyeglasses through our School Eye Health Programs, allowing them to learn, thrive and live up to their full potential.
