VELA

Vision, Educación, Lentes y Ayuda

VELA is a social program with a direct impact on communities, conducting eye health campaigns, eyeglass donations, and education on eye care.

It engages students, professionals, and volunteers from around the world to help.

Anyone can be part of this mission: from providing logistical support to accompanying those who receive assistance, because every action helps transform lives.

Eye Health Campaigns:
VELA aims to organize free eye care campaigns bringing professional eye exams and guidance to those who need it most.

Eyeglass Donations:
We plan to collect, recycle, and distribute prescription glasses to improve the quality of life for people who currently have no access to them.

What we do

Education on Eye Care:
We seek to offer workshops and talks about prevention, eye hygiene, and early detection of eye diseases, fostering a culture of visual health across all ages.

Global Participation:
VELA aims to bring together students, optometrists, ophthalmologists, and volunteers from around the world to join future campaigns, share knowledge, and provide human support.
