Conexus' mission is to eliminate undetected and untreated vision problems as barriers to success in school and life, thus allowing all children the opportunity to reach their fullest potential.

In the 2025-2026 program year, Conexus delivered VisioCheck screenings to 112,532 students in 58 school divisions across the Commonwealth, while the Mobile Vision Clinic provided 10,914 exams in 19 school divisions; a whopping 46% increase in exams over the previous year!

As a result of these exams, Conexus prescribed 8,917 pairs of glasses!

This year, Conexus expanded its Mobile Vision Clinic to Brunswick, Buckingham, Caroline, Charles City, Colonial Heights, Dinwiddie, Lunenburg, Nelson, Nottoway, and Staunton! Conexus also delivered pilot programs to Newport News and Roanoke with an eye towards future growth.
