At half Helen (hH), we exist to help our patients see the world clearly. Founded in 2013, hH started out providing vision and hearing screenings and worked to connect children in need to follow up care providers. Recently hH launched optical Prime, a mobile eye clinic that brings vision care directly to children where they are, at school.

Vision impairment is the single most prevalent disabling condition among children. One in four children has a vision problem. With 80% of learning being visual, schools conduct vision screenings for good reason. It’s not enough to identify a vision problem; 40% of children that fail a vision screening never see an eye doctor. Left untreated, uncorrected refractive errors can result in Amblyopia - the number one cause of blindness in children. Closing the access to care gap for children in low-income communities strengthens children’s social and emotional development and academic success.
