Sightsavers

Our history

For 60 years Sightsavers has been restoring sight and improving the lives of people who are irreversibly blind in poor countries around the world. We were founded in the 1950s by Sir John Wilson, with the express aim of restoring sight - wherever possible - in former Commonwealth countries.

About us

Sightsavers works to combat blindness in developing countries, restoring sight through specialist treatment and eye care. We also support people who are irreversibly blind by providing education, counselling and training. We help the people who need it most - those living in poverty in some of the world's poorest countries.
