About Us​

The Vision for Education Foundation (V4E), formerly known as Karachi Airport Lions Eye Bank, stands as a testament to an evolving commitment. Originating from deep roots dedicated to promoting eye health in Sindh, V4E has expanded its mission to advocate for a synergy between Vision and Education.

We envisage a society where every child, unhindered by visual impairments, can boldly pursue their academic dreams. Expanding beyond its initial focus, VEF now nurtures the holistic well-being of communities while advocating for environmental conservation.

Our Vision

“Empowering every child with clear vision and quality education for a brighter, sustainable future.”

V4E envisions a future where every child can pursue education unencumbered by visual impairments. Through corneal transplant efforts, VEF strives to restore the sight of individuals, enabling them to realize their full potential.

Our Mission

V4E spearheads this mission by implementing eye screenings for students, ensuring they receive the requisite support – be it spectacles, medical interventions, or surgeries. The Mobile Eye Clinic initiative underscores VEF’s dedication to reaching even the most remote and underserved communities, ensuring that essential eye care services are not a privilege, but a right. Recognizing that the key to lasting sight preservation is early detection, VEF emphasizes the criticality of timely treatment.

Furthermore, VEF ardently advocates for a culture of eye hygiene among the youth. By inculcating knowledge about the myriad benefits of maintaining ocular health and its interlink with a healthier environment, they aim for holistic well-being. Encouraging cornea donations and facilitating sight-restoring transplants underscore VEF’s commitment not just to treating the visually impaired but empowering them to reclaim their vision and, with it, their future.
