As a leader in the world of color and beauty through its color contact lenses, Desio has decided to pursue its commitment to the world’s most vulnerable by saving sight in the poorest countries. Only sight allows us to appreciate the color and beauty of everything that surrounds us.
Desio has decided to give a chance to those who will become blind without help. We will support the treatments that will save thousands of people from blindness in over 30 developing countries.
To our amazement, 75% of blind people would not be if they would have had access to existing treatments: often just medicine or a simple operation.
Unfortunately, in less developed countries taking care of someone’s eyes is often an inaccessible luxury. Due to the cost of care, the possibility of visiting health facilities is often very difficult. Many people do not even know that eye diseases can be cured. Even if they did, they have much more urgent problems, such as getting food.
This is why Desìo has chosen to financially support Sightsavers activities aimed at the prevention and treatment of eye diseases through visits, specialized care, interventions, training of health personnel, purchasing of equipment, materials
Because everyone, in the most remote and forgotten areas of the world, can hope and have access to the care they need.
