Did you know?

Beyond providing exceptional eye and hearing care, Specsavers is passionate about giving back to the community both locally and nationally. As part of their commitment to improving eye health across Australia, Specsavers proudly partners with The Fred Hollows Foundation to support its Indigenous Australia Program. Did you know Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples are three times more likely to experience blindness than other Australians, simply because the health system is not meeting their needs? Through this partnership, Specsavers is helping close the gap in eye health outcomes and ensuring every Australian has access to quality care, no matter where they live.

Specsavers is also making strides in sustainability with their nationwide glasses recycling program, in collaboration with Opticycle. Instead of letting old eyewear end up in landfill, customers can drop their unwanted glasses into the store recycling box, where they’re given new life as upcycled materials. It’s a simple way to reduce waste
and make a positive environmental impact.
