All About Vision: Where Your Health Begins
Who we are
All About Vision is a modern consumer health platform with a mission to provide patients, caregivers and consumers with practical and authoritative details, explanations and a broader understanding of eye care.
Our aim is to explain the science behind eye conditions, treatments and vision technologies in language that is accessible without sacrificing accuracy. Whether you’re researching symptoms, learning about common eye diseases, exploring treatment options, supporting a loved one’s care or understanding the latest advances in eyewear and vision correction, our goal is to assist you in navigating your eye health with confidence.
Backed by decades of editorial expertise and the committed involvement of a wide range of clinical and medical technology experts, All About Vision illuminates the critical role vision plays in our overall health, productivity, learning and quality of life.
For more than 25 years, millions of patients across the U.S. and around the world have relied upon All About Vision for free and easy-to-understand information about eyes and the role comprehensive eye care plays in overall health.
What makes us different
Decades of editorial expertise
The writers, creators and clinical contributors behind All About Vision approach every topic with the rigor of seasoned health reporters—fact-checking, source-verification and clear storytelling.
Expert-reviewed content
Every article is reviewed by certified eye care professionals, including licensed optometrists and ophthalmologists, before publication to help ensure medical accuracy, clinical relevance and alignment with current standards of care.
Credibility and trusted sources
Along with leading clinical, surgical and medical technology experts to review and help guide our efforts, All About Vision develops its stories and helpful tools from original reporting, as well as citations from such leading authorities as the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), National Eye Institute (NEI), National Institutes of Health (NIH), World Health Organization (WHO), American Academy of Optometry (AAOpt), American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO), World Council of Optometry (WCO), leading universities and research societies and respected public health organizations and non-governmental organizations (NGOs).
Practical guidance
We go beyond the science. We focus on what medical information means in everyday life, helping readers recognize symptoms, know when to seek professional care, evaluate treatment options and make informed decisions about their eye health.
Looking beyond vision
We dig deep on matters of eyes and eye care, but we take an extensive view in our reporting, exploring how vision shapes overall health and well-being, and how our overall health impacts the eyes.
Why this matters now
Access to accurate, trustworthy eye health information has never been more important.
Did you know that more than 2.2 billion people around the world live with a distance or near vision impairment?
For at least 1 billion of those lives, vision impairment could have been prevented.
By 2050, it is predicted that 1 in 10 will have high myopia, a severe form of near-sightedness that can potentially cause irreversible vision loss.
Part of a bigger mission
Vision shapes how we learn, work, connect with others and experience the world—and we’re committed to making that possible for everyone.
This multiplatform initiative aims to bring together information and resources for patients, consumers and caregivers provided by a range of authorities and professionals across the eye care and health care communities to expand knowledge and access.
All About Vision is supported by EssilorLuxottica, a global leader in eye care innovation and technology, but operates as an independent editorial entity.
