Mission, Vision & Culture
Eversight’s mission is to restore sight and prevent blindness through the healing power of donation, transplantation and research.
Our vision is a world without blindness.
At Eversight, our culture is based on this purpose and philosophy:
We empower people and transform lives through building authentic relationships.
Our culture story
Imagine you’re unable to see the sky or a bright sunny day. Imagine you’re unable to see a loved one’s eyes as they smile. You can’t see their face as they call your name, or your own face in the mirror as you start each day. This is what life is like for millions of people coping with blindness.
Now imagine your eyesight is restored. You can suddenly see all the color and sights of the world around you. Your life is transformed. This is the power of eye donation, transplantation and research.
This is what each of us at Eversight makes possible every day. For more than 75 years, Eversight has enabled donors and their families to give the gift of sight. We ensure that their gifts transform the lives of those suffering from blindness, and advance new treatments and cures for blindness.

We are fully committed to our purpose, to empower people and transform lives. As a result of what we do every day: People of all ages and all walks of life are empowered to make the selfless decision to donate. Donors create legacies, donor families transform loss into hope for others, and recipients’ lives are changed through the gift of sight.
Creating authentic relationships is our philosophy. We are known for the caring relationships we have with each other and everyone we work with: donors and their families, transplant recipients, surgeons, researchers, Lions, and every advocate and partner in our mission. Our dedicated employees value these connections, and work to build and cultivate these relationships.
Service, Drive and Trust are the guiding principles that ensure we succeed in our mission. We live them every day; they drive our actions and the decisions we make. We are attentive and responsive when engaging with our customers, partners and each other. We anticipate others’ needs, and strive to exceed their expectations. We are driven to achieve excellence through continuous learning and improving our skills, knowledge and reputation. We assume best intentions in all interactions, and we communicate with transparency, respect and a deep appreciation for others' expertise, ideas and capabilities.
We are responsible stewards of the gifts entrusted to us, and honor those who have provided them. We deeply appreciate the good that comes from loss, and we empower our team to make decisions that serve that greater good. Through living our culture every day, lives are forever changed.
