At IRIS, seeing further doesn't just mean improving vision. It also means looking beyond ourselves, reaching out, and actively contributing to the well-being of communities here and abroad. For over 35 years, our commitment has extended beyond the walls of our clinics. Because for us, vision is also a matter of the heart.
IRIS Mundial: giving sight, giving opportunities
Through IRIS Mundial, we participate in humanitarian missions to provide eye exams, eyeglasses, and eye care to vulnerable populations in different countries.
Optometrists, opticians, and volunteers come together to restore sight—and often, restore hope.
A child who receives their first pair of glasses can finally learn at school.An adult can regain their independence and continue working.
These concrete actions have a direct and lasting impact on the quality of life of the people we meet. IRIS Mundial perfectly embodies our belief: better vision means a better life.
25 years alongside the Charles-Bruneau Foundation
IRIS has also been a proud partner of the Charles-Bruneau Foundation for over 25 years. This long-standing collaboration reflects our commitment to supporting pediatric hematology-oncology research and offering hope to children with cancer and their families.
Among the notable initiatives, several members of the IRIS network actively participate in the Tour CIBC Charles-Bruneau, a unifying cycling event that raises essential funds for research.
- Every pedal stroke represents a gesture of solidarity.
- Every donation contributes to advancing science.
- Every participation brings hope.
Over the years, IRIS teams have rallied with passion—colleagues, friends, families—demonstrating that our strength lies in collective commitment.
A culture of commitment
Beyond major initiatives, IRIS encourages its teams to get involved locally on a daily basis: fundraising, community activities, regional partnerships, solidarity programs. We firmly believe that a responsible company must contribute positively to its environment.
Giving back to the community is part of IRIS's DNA. Whether it's helping a child see better on the other side of the world or cycling to support research right here in Canada, every action counts.
Because seeing further means understanding that vision goes far beyond the eyes. It means choosing to get involved.
It means making a difference.
