Vision Loss means a New Beginning

Vision loss changes how you experience the world, but it doesn’t have to limit what’s possible. At NewView Oklahoma, we help people who are blind or have low vision live full, confident, and independent lives through practical training, meaningful employment, and vibrant community programs.

For 75 years, we’ve walked alongside Oklahomans with vision loss, proving every day that ability is not defined by sight.

Nobody should have to face vision loss alone. If you or someone you love is struggling, let us help.

Help those living with vision loss gain independence, confidence and employment.

Losing your vision doesn’t mean losing your independence, community, or purpose. With the right tools and support, a vibrant life is absolutely possible.

NewView Oklahoma exists to offer hope and practical solutions to individuals who are blind or have low vision.

Our educational focus centers on empowering people to live independent, fulfilling lives through three core pillars: comprehensive low-vision rehabilitation, vocational training & employment and inclusive community programming.

Addressing Real Barriers With Real Solutions

ACCESS TO CARE

Insurance covers only a fraction of essential services. NewView fills the gap so no one is turned away, and we are able to do so thanks to our incredibly generous community of donors.

ACCESSIBILITY

Many workplace technologies remain incompatible with assistive tools, creating barriers to advancement. We advocate for change and provide training to bridge that gap.

TRANSPORTATION & ISOLATION

A lack of transportation, orientation and mobility training, and awareness can lead to isolation for many individuals. We create spaces where people feel seen, supported, and connected.

Help fund life-changing rehabilitation, technology training, and community programming. Your gift ensures cost is never a barrier.

In 2024, NewView Oklahoma delivered more than 7,500 direct service appointments to individuals living with vision loss—including eye exams, assistive technology training, occupational therapy, and orientation and mobility sessions. Through school-based services, summer camps, and immersive vocational training, we’re also equipping the next generation with the skills and confidence to thrive independently.
And with nearly 10,000 Oklahomans reached through outreach and education, we’re working to ensure no one facing vision loss has to do it alone. But demand is rising—and the cost of delivering accessible, high-quality care continues to grow.
