Providing Glasses in the US How the Program Operates
If you are approved for assistance by New Eyes or by one of our participating social service agencies, the process to receive glasses is as follows:


  • Your agency rep will receive a blue and white voucher on your behalf. Do not order your glasses before receiving the voucher.
  • You may take the voucher to any dispenser in your area as payment for your new eyeglasses. Make sure the optician is willing to provide your eyeglasses for the rates printed on the voucher.

    There are thousands of opticians around the United States who will readily accept a New Eyes voucher as payment for glasses. However, click here if you need assistance in locating a participating dispenser in your area.
  • A New Eyes voucher typically covers only the cost of a basic pair of single or bifocal eyeglasses. New Eyes does not endorse the purchase of more costly glasses at a client's additional expense. The intent of our program is to help those most in need. Clients who have sufficient resources to supplement our voucher should not be eligible for our program.
  • Do not pay the optician yourself. The dispenser will receive reimbursement directly from New Eyes.
  • Make sure to use the voucher before the expiration date.
