Operation Sight Vision and Mission
Welcome to Operation Sight
Dear Friend,
If you’re reading this, chances are your vision has been changing—and life might feel a little harder right now. Maybe you’ve been told you need cataract surgery, but you don’t have insurance or the means to pay for care. Please know this: you are not alone, and there is hope.
Operation Sight was created for people who truly have nowhere else to turn. We believe everyone deserves the chance to see clearly again, regardless of their financial situation. Through the generosity of volunteer surgeons and donors, we provide free cataract surgery to eligible individuals who are uninsured and living within 250% of the Federal Poverty Level.
We understand how overwhelming it can feel to lose your sight and not know what to do next. Our team is here to guide you through the application process with compassion and care—and to connect you with help if you qualify.
If you’ve been searching for hope, you’ve come to the right place. Welcome to Operation Sight, where restored vision and brighter days begin.
With care,
Sarah Duval
Operation Sight Program Manager
