The nation's leading mobile vision provider expands its commitment to accessible, affordable eye care for schools and communities nationwide.
CLIFTON, N.J., Oct. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- In honor of World Sight Day on Oct. 10 and National Vision Awareness Month, Optical Academy is reaffirming its mission to make comprehensive eye care accessible for all, especially children. As the nation's leading onsite mobile vision provider, Optical Academy is taking action to close the vision care gap by delivering eye exams and affordable eyewear directly to schools and underserved communities across the country.
World Sight Day, observed annually on the second Thursday of October, brings global attention to the importance of accessible and affordable eye care. This year's focus is on eye health equity, ensuring everyone, regardless of background or zip code, has access to the vision care they need.
"We believe everyone deserves to see a beautiful day, clearly, comfortably and confidently," said Abby Ayoub, Founder and CEO of Optical Academy. "World Sight Day is a powerful reminder that access to eye care is a necessity, not a luxury. We're committed to showing up where we're needed most, right in the heart of our schools and communities."
Why It Matters:
Vision issues affect 1 in 4 children in the U.S., often going undiagnosed.
Routine eye exams are crucial for academic performance, safety and development.
Early detection of vision impairment can change a child's learning path and quality of life.
Equity in eye care is key โ millions still lack access due to cost, transportation or availability.
Standard eyewear is marked up by over 1000%.
With over 15,000 mobile vision events conducted and serving more than 2 million students nationwide, Optical Academy continues to bridge the gap in eye care by bringing services directly to schools, workplaces, and communities, thereby eliminating the most common barriers to access. It provides licensed eye exams, offers a wide selection of stylish and affordable frames on-site and accepts most vision insurance plans. The glasses are made right onsite for fast delivery.
