Collaboration with Mr. Beast to Restore Sight
Our team at Vision Is Priceless recently partnered with Dr. Jeff Levenson, local ophthalmologist and Vision Is Priceless board member, and Mr. Beast, the most subscribed individual YouTube creator in the world, to help restore the sight of individuals who are blind due to cataracts!
Mr. Beast paid for 1,000 individuals around the world to receive free cataract surgery. The first 40 life-changing surgeries were done right here in Jacksonville by Dr. Levenson!
The video showing our clients reactions received over 130 million views on YouTube, which is bringing a tremendous amount of awareness to the work being done here in Northeast Florida!
Our organization, in partnership with Dr. Levenson, has coordinated the Gift of Sight program for over 20 years, which provides free cataract surgery for uninsured patients on the First Coast who are legally blind due to cataracts.
Now, thanks to the Mr. Beast collab, the Gift of Sight program has been featured by CNN, People, and the national radio program, Elvis Duran and the Morning Show, just to name a few.
We are incredibly grateful for the national spotlight the Mr. Beast video has shined on the work being done here in Northeast Florida.
