Our long-term focus is to prevent vision loss from placing significant, lifelong burdens on someone else. An eye exam detecting underlying and asymptomatic eye disease is the first step in prevention and most often not obtained until it’s too late.
Our short-term focus is to enhance daily life through clear vision. We use glasses to eliminate blurry and distorted vision so someone can take advantage of every educational and employment opportunity and enjoy the sights many of us take for granted.
Impaired vision and blindness costs our community millions of dollars in negative social and economic impact. Those who need vision care struggle to find jobs, advance in education (especially children), and to be safe in the community. KC Free Eye Clinic helps those experiencing homelessness or are underserved access eye care services that improve their overall wellness, autonomy, and opportunities for success.
