Researchers estimate that nearly 2 billion people worldwide have Presbyopia. When someone doesn’t have access to vision care, presbyopia is much more than an inconvenience — it is a leading cause of vision impairment that reduces people's quality of life and productivity.

Make a difference.

With your help, each year we are able to improve the quality of life for more and more people. Giving them back the ability to read, knit, sew and perform many more activities they love which without readers were no longer able to do.

Here is how you can help us empower these people in our country. Every year we run our Buy 1 Give 1 program through-out the Eyecare Month (between September and October each year). During this month for every pair of glasses bought, we will donate a pair of reading glasses to elderly disadvantaged South Africans.

To date, Readwell® and Clicks have donated over 200,000 pairs of reading glasses to disadvantaged elderly people in old age homes around South Africa and each year that number grows thanks to purchases like yours.  

BUY A PAIR OF READING GLASSES THIS EYECARE MONTH and change a life.

Most of the residents that live here can barely afford essentials so this campaign makes it possible to enrich their lives by meeting their everyday need OF SIGHT!

One of the ladies asked me if I am a prophet and I laughed and said I am not, then she said she thought I was because a few days before the lunch she broke her glasses and had to prepare to buy another pair and Clicks and Readwell made that possible again.
