Supporting access to eye health and care in communities around the world.
We consider it a privilege to bring eye health care and access to people worldwide through our two signature charity partners, Lions Clubs International Foundation and HCP Cureblindness.
Together, we’re helping kids grow, play, and learn; and adults more fully experience the lives they’ve built—freeing them from needless blindness.
Helping ensure children have access to eye health services through Sight For Kids—a program co-founded by Johnson & Johnson Vision and Lions Clubs International Foundation.
Established in 2002, Sight For Kids is the largest-known, school-based eye health program in the world. Reaching over 3 million children annually, Sight For Kids mobilizes eye care professionals and volunteers to provide comprehensive eye health services to students in low-income schools across Africa, Asia, and North America. The program also trains teachers to deliver eye health education, perform a visual acuity test, and screen their students for common eye conditions.
For the past 20 years, Sight For Kids has equipped communities around the world to provide children with clear and healthy vision. The program has engaged more than 200,000 teachers, visually screened over 48 million students, helped 640,000 students receive additional treatments and surgeries from eye care professionals, while also providing more than 500,000 pairs of eyeglasses to children.1
Working to eliminate preventable and curable blindness in under-resourced communities through support of Cure Blindness Project.
Cure Blindness Project envisions a world where no one is needlessly blind. To make that happen, they enable underserved communities to cure avoidable blindness by developing high-quality, cost-effective, sustainable eye care systems that help people retain or regain their sight.
Cure Blindness Project’s approach to eye care is unique – it focuses on building local capacity, ensuring quality infrastructure and equipment are available, enabling quality patient care and aiding effective prevention. They provide training and equipment to healthcare professionals, who then go on to provide eye care services in their own communities. This action-based approach builds local leadership, empowers key actors, and develops sustainable practices from the ground up. Together with an extensive network of implementing partners in over 30 countries, Cure Blindness Project has provided more than 1.6 million sight-restoring surgeries and screened more than 16.5 million people to provide care and basic treatments, has trained over 20,100 eye health professionals, and has established 5 eye hospitals.

It takes a healthy planet to have healthy people and communities.
As a global manufacturer, we recognize our responsibility to help protect the planet. From finding sustainable solutions to existing challenges, to tackling key issues that affect us all—we’re passionate about creating a more sustainable future.
Committed to creating a healthier world, we focus our environmental sustainability efforts on three key areas:
Over the past ten years, we’ve significantly reduced our carbon footprint and are on track to help Johnson & Johnson meet its carbon neutrality goal by 2030.3 Additionally, as of 2022, all ACUVUE® contact lenses are made using 100% renewable energy, helping the business achieve it global climate goal of sourcing 100% of its electricity needs from renewable sources three years early!4
We also constantly innovate how we produce, transport, and responsibly dispose of our products to reduce waste. In Europe, we’ve removed plastic pouches for ACUVUE® delivery notices on customer orders, saving 10 tons of plastic annually.5 Our partnership with TerraCycle® in the United Kingdom (U.K.) has also seen 8.5 million contact lenses, blister packs, and foils recycled as part of the ACUVUE® Contact Lens Recycling Programme.6
From reducing water usage at our manufacturing sites, to reducing the plastic content in our packaging by up to 40%—we’re striving to limit our use of natural resources as we work to find new solutions to better protect the environment.7 That’s also why we installed a 3-megawatt wind turbine at our Limerick, Ireland facility, which generates 4 gigawatt-hours of energy per year—enough to power ~550 homes!*,8It’s just a few of the ways we’re doing our part to help create a healthier planet for all.
