The report spotlights how-in collaboration with network providers, community partners, and employees-VSP Eyes of Hope^® has helped more than 4.5 million people access no-cost eye care and eyewear to date. The company has also invested nearly $7.3 million in direct and in-kind funding in 2025 to expand equitable access to vision care and strengthen communities.

"Expanding access to care and supporting the profession of optometry were central to what our founders set out to do, and they will remain key drivers of our strategy and social impact work for the next 70 years, too."
