Volunteer Optometric Services to Humanity

VOSH is a national organization aimed at helping people who do not have access to eye care. Indiana University's Student VOSH chapter is open to all optometry, optician, optometric technicians, and vision science students. Donated eye glasses are cleaned and organized to be taken and dispensed on trips to Latin American countries. In recent years, VOSH members have made an annual trip to Guanajuato, Mexico (where the IU School of Optometry manages an eye care center), seeing nearly 3000 patients in less than a week's time. Funds for these projects come mostly from donations.

If you have questions about VOSH, please contact the representatives below.
