Since 1997, DX has been providing a nationwide service conveying hundreds of boxes of recycled spectacles for Vision Aid Overseas. Vision Aid Overseas’ work is focused on helping people in the developing world whose existence has been blighted by poor eyesight. Every month, DX makes dozens of collections of donated spectacles from opticians’ practices in the United Kingdom and its regular deliveries result in an average of 1,100,000 million pairs of spectacles being delivered to Vision Aid Overseas’ offices throughout the course of each year.
