This week I sat down with Global Vision 2020 CEO and Founder Kevin White to talk about the world's largest unmet disability... access to proper eye care and distribution of eyeglasses to the development world.
Global Vision 2020 and White, a former U.S. Marine, provides a USee Vision Kit that provides affordable eyeglasses for people that don't have direct access to them. They travel and meet with leaders of countries, religious groups, non-profits, and more to help distribute these glasses to communities that don't have equal access to proper eyeglasses and vision care.
In this episode we discuss:
Why the disability of vision flies under the radar and why there are still communities struggling to get access to eyeglasses.
How the USee Vision Kit was created and how they were able to reduce the cost of quality eyeglasses to as low as $3.00.
How vision disabilities impact a community and their economy and the difference it makes to solve this problem
The future of solving this problem for good and providing equal access to eyeglasses and vision care throughout the world.
I highly recommend checking out the YouTube video to see these glasses in action!
