Gift Certificate Program

Sight for Students® is now the VSP Eyes of Hope® gift certificate program.

NASN is grateful to VSP VisionTM for VSP® Eyes of Hope® (formerly Sight for Students). The program operates nationally through NASN and other community partners to provide access to eye care for school-age children in need. Gift certificates cover a comprehensive eye exam and, if prescribed, new glasses at a VSP network doctor's office.

NASN members can provide students who qualify with a certificate to receive essential vision care at no cost to the school or student. Coverage is printed on each certificate.

Thanks to our partnership, more than 500,000 students have received the vision care they need to succeed in school and achieve their full potential. In total, over the last 25 years, more than 3.8 million people in need have received no-cost eye care and eyewear through VSP® Eyes of Hope® initiatives.
