Unite For Sight volunteers work with eye clinics to implement screening
outreach programs, which reduce the barriers to healthcare, including
financial, transportation, and education barriers. All patients with
eye disease receive diagnosis, treatment, and surgery at the closest
quality eye clinic. Volunteers make a significant, meaningful, and
tangible impact on the lives of children and adults worldwide. You will
immediately see the joys on people's faces when their sight is restored
after years of blindness.
Premeds and med students are especially encouraged to participate.
