About Optometry
The World Health Organization has determined that lack of eye-care is one of the most crucial needs in developing countries.

Through ISL, thousands of the underserved have received eyewear and eye care.

ISL’s Baja Mexico program is an on-going humanitarian project that takes place in Puerto Peñasco, situated along the beautiful Sea of Cortez. We work with global health agencies, local health ministries, and other NGOs in our partner communities. Volunteers are able to gain valuable experience participating in community clinics and/or working in institutional and community health contexts.
