When we restore sight, we don’t just change how people see the world—we change what the world can be.
In 2025, Seva reached more people than ever before—restoring sight, strengthening communities, and proving what’s possible when compassion drives action.
Our new Impact Report captures this year’s milestones:
- 7.6 million people received eye care services
- 45 new Vision Centers established, reaching 4.2 million people
- 5,000+ eye care professionals trained worldwide
- A groundbreaking Seva study revealed $1 trillion in lost productivity each year from unaddressed vision loss—making the case for global investment in eye health
Together, we opened a new eye hospital in Quiché, Guatemala, and advanced a patient-centered innovation, paving the way for Cambodia’s first optometry school.
Your trust in Seva transforms twelve months of work into something far greater—a movement of vision and compassion. It reminds us that when we see with purpose and act with conviction, the boundaries of what we can achieve dissolve before us.
Undaunted, we carry on!
