Searching for a unique and heartfelt gift this holiday season? Affordable vision insurance is the perfect way to show you care all year long. And this year, your gift helps a child in need see. | Sponsored by VSP Direct

Slippers, gloves, ties, candy—do you struggle with finding a holiday gift that’s both thoughtful and affordable? This year, show your loved ones you care with a gift that helps them see the world more clearly—and that lasts all year long.

This holiday season, consider giving the Gift of Sight to someone you care about by purchasing an affordable vision plan at GiveVSPDirect.com/EyeGiveBack. Vision plans include an eye exam, plus contacts, or your choice of designer frames from numerous stylish brands, including Calvin Klein, Diane von Furstenburg, and Nike.

And this season, there’s an added bonus to giving the Gift of Sight. When you purchase a vision plan as a gift, VSP Direct is giving an eye exam and glasses to a child in need through the #EyeGiveBack program.

The team at VSP hears inspiring stories of those benefiting from vision insurance every day, like this story from Amy F., a mother of two.

Amy’s youngest daughter—whom she lovingly refers to as “The Little One,” or TLO—was struggling in school. TLO was disinterested in reading and drawing and could not focus on her work. When she realized her daughter’s excessive energy was not to blame for the decline in her academic performance, Amy scheduled an eye exam to determine whether a vision problem was affecting TLO’s learning. Sure enough, the exam revealed that TLO was farsighted.

Right now, when you gift a vision plan to a friend or family member, VSP Direct provides a child in need with a free eye exam and glasses. View the video to find out more at GiveVSPDirect.com/EyeGiveBack. #EyeGiveBackAdvertisement

“It started making sense why she wasn’t interested in the words in books or doing her writing assignments—she couldn’t see them!” Amy says.

During her daughter’s struggle, Amy learned about VSP Direct insurance, which offers individual vision insurance plans for those who don’t have coverage through their employers.

As soon as TLO started wearing the glasses she received through her new VSP Direct plan, her academic performance improved drastically and her learning problems all but disappeared. In fact, she advanced from first to third grade. Looking back, Amy is grateful she scheduled an exam for her daughter when she did.

“Without our decision to go in for TLO’s first eye exam, I cringe to think how she might be struggling in school not being able to see close-up,” she says.

If Amy’s story sounds familiar to you, or if someone on your holiday shopping list suffers from vision problems, you may have found the perfect holiday gift. The good news is that, like Amy’s daughter, many vision conditions can be corrected through a comprehensive eye exam.
