DOMESTIC
MISSION
In
the United States, InFOCUS trains health and social
service providers and community volunteers to promote
preventive practices, assess vision, and refer patients
to qualified practitioners for eye exams. InFOCUS helps
its program partners set up Vision
Stations offering low-cost, quality eyeglasses
to individuals who could otherwise not afford them.
InFOCUS also trains and equips clinicians and volunteers
to offer eye care on short term mission trips. |

INTERNATIONAL
MISSION
In
other countries, InFOCUS provides technology, clinical
training and logistic support to help communities provide
for their own eye health and vision care needs. Community
eye care providers measure refractive errors, dispense
glasses, and use the proceeds of spectacle sales to
defray operating costs. |
