OUR MISSION
Over 150 million people worldwide do not have access to glasses. As a result, such people are unable to work, leading to a lack of income. At INVU, we believe that quality eyewear should be available for everyone.
That is why, with each purchase in our shop, we donate the value of one frame to people in need in Myanmar.
The project was founded by Martin Aufmuth, driven by the idea to offer glasses to people in poorer countries. He brought his idea to life by developing a bending machine that can be operated simply, allowing local workers to be trained to manufacture the glasses.
The glasses themselves consist of a light, flexible spring steel frame, and are made of unbreakable materials. And with that, the project provides a two-sided benefit; providing local workers with valuable income while providing those in need access to glasses.
Since 2015, the association, with its focus on communities in Myanmar, has already donated over 9,000 glasses to local people in need. Headquartered in NayPyiTaw as GoodVisionGlasses Ltd., the glasses are distributed in the office, as well as in outreach visits to the countryside of Myanmar.
ONE FRAME AT A TIME
Through your purchase, one more person in need has gained access to a valued pair of glasses.
Thank you for helping us in our mission to provide eyewear to all, one frame at a time.

OUR STORY
INVU was founded in 2013 based on the principle that the highest quality eyewear should be affordable for everyone. Fancy brand names demand huge royalties to finance their even fancier advertising campaigns.
INVU uses a different business model with its high-quality INVU sunglass brand. We focus on investing in the best material and lens technologies to ensure that our customers can enjoy the latest technological advances at a fair price.
INVU’s international team of designers, engineers, and marketing experts guarantee that our glasses fit our Swiss quality standards and deliver exceptional performance.
To take it up a notch, we are manufacturing our new INVU “Frame It Your Way” customized sunglasses in a state-of-the-art Swiss optical laboratory, using cutting-edge materials and the latest ultra polarized lens technology.
In short, no compromises – just the best sunglasses - at a price that you will love.
With representative offices in Switzerland and Italy as well as partner companies worldwide,
INVU is currently available in over 90 countries around the world.
