Maison Mata Charity, Clear Vision for Bali’s Children

professional optometric eye testing for children during Maison Mata charity mission in Bali

What We Discovered

A total of 334 students received complete vision screening. The results showed a significant need for eye care in the school:

● 152 students (45.5 percent) needed prescription glasses
● 5 students had severe refractive errors
● Many had struggled silently for years without realizing they had vision problems

Some students had high myopia up to minus 6.00 and strong astigmatism, conditions that make learning extremely difficult.

What We Provided

Every child received a professional eye examination, along with:

● Free prescription glasses
● Blue-light protection lenses to reduce screen strain
● Parent consultations to explain their child’s condition and recommended care

This ensures not only immediate help, but also long-term understanding and awareness in the community.

Lifetime Care for Every Child

To ensure sustainable and lasting impact, Maison Mata provides lifetime support for all students who received glasses:

● Free replacement glasses if they break or get lost
● Free updated lenses when prescriptions change
● Access to continued eye care in all Maison Mata stores in Bali

Our goal is to support every child’s vision throughout their school years and beyond.

Why This Matters

Untreated vision problems affect a child’s entire learning experience, including:

● Reading and comprehension
● Concentration and academic performance
● Classroom confidence and participation

A simple pair of glasses can completely change how a child sees the world and how they perform in school.
