We're constantly asking ourselves how we can do more & make a greater impact, & that starts by reimagining everything that a company & industry can be. We want to demonstrate that a business can scale while doing good in the world, without charging a premium for it.

We offer everything you need for happier eyes at a price that leaves you with money in your pocket, from designer-quality glasses & contacts to eye exams & vision tests, & you can meet us online, at our stores, or even in your home. Wherever & whenever you need it, were there to make exceptional vision care simple & accessible. (Delightful, too.)

Ultimately, we believe in vision for all, which is why for every pair of glasses or sunglasses we sell, a pair of glasses is distributed to someone in need through our Buy a Pair, Give a Pair program.
