#Glasses2Classes™
Onsite Eye Exams & Eyewear For Your ENTIRE School In ONE DAY!
let's focus on what really matters.
What is Glasses2Classes™?
Glasses2Classes™ is an innovative program created by the nation’s leading onsite mobile eye care and eyewear provider, Optical Academy®. This program is designed to bring essential onsite mobile vision screenings, comprehensive eye exams, and high-quality eyewear directly to students right at their schools. It addresses a critical issue: 1 in 4 students cannot see what is being taught in their classrooms. This statistic highlights a significant concern, as 25% of all students face vision problems that are serious enough to negatively impact their academic performance and overall learning experience.
When a child struggles to see clearly, it becomes incredibly challenging for them to absorb information, participate in class discussions, and complete assignments effectively. This can lead to frustration and a lack of confidence in their abilities. Our mission is clear: we aim to help all students reach their full potential by ensuring they have access to the vision care they need. By focusing on improving their eyesight, we are laying the foundation for better learning outcomes. We believe that every child deserves the opportunity to learn to the best of their abilities, and it all starts with clear vision. Through our program, we are committed to making a positive difference in the lives of students, one pair of glasses at a time.
Did you know 70% of children who fail a vision screening never see an Eye Doctor for corrective eyewear? Our Glasses2Classes™ program aims to bridge that gap as we directly provide children with an eye exam & glasses right in the comfort of their school!

“The friendly and professional staff of Optical Academy came to our school and did a wonderful job. Our school which is located in the Bronx serves students with autism spectrum disorders and other learning disabilities. The Optical Academy's expert staff were undaunted and treated each student with a great deal of compassion, patience, and knowledgeable care. The overall experience was very positive and professional and our students appreciated it very much. I would highly recommend The Optical Academy for all schools."
“Robert, Cristal, and Lorenzo were a big help! They came to my school and were able to get me my new glasses I loved. I would definitely recommend them if you need to check out your eyes or get a new prescription!”
“I wanted to write a note of appreciation to Optical Academy. We received our glasses today and it truly was a great experience. Your team members work hard to service all of our students and provide them with eye exams and free glasses where necessary. Please extend our deepest gratitude to your team members who made this possible."
"Thank you so much for sending such an awesome team! Robert and the staff were such a pleasure to work with. The team members working with all of our teachers, students, and staff were kind, efficient, and flexible. Everyone was very approachable and Dr. Vitto made it a quick process for all of our participants. The excitement from the students seeing all the glasses available was heartwarming and so adorable when they realized they didn't need glasses! This was a wonderful experience and I would love to have a larger event in the future to include our other campuses and the community."
“I would like to extent my gratitude to you and your team on such an amazing job yesterday with my students. Everything transitioned smoothly and very efficient. Your staff were very professional and patient with both me and my students. A few of my students needed assistance with translation and they stepped right in to assure that the child received the necessary support.”
Just wanted you to know that the event went smoothly today. The staff were set up and ready to go when I arrived. We went over paperwork as we waited for the doctor to arrive.Your staff ensured the children felt comfortable and at ease during the process. The changing of sites went flawless and we were able to see all the children that signed up and were in attendance today at both sites. You have a great group of guys working for you, we appreciate them and the services Optical Academy provides for our children. We look forward to working with you in the future.
“Thank you so much for your presence at PS/MS 31 today. We benefited from your organized set up to your professional interactions. The students are forever grateful and we look forward to our continued partnership."
“Vision Screening was successful in a timely manner. Professionalism and excellent service were exhibited.”
