Envision is more than an optometry practice, we are a team of dedicated individuals who believe in Our Purpose – optimizing our patients lives to better our world. Our expertise elevates the eyecare and eyewear experience from start to finish.
We are incredibly excited to share that on December 2, our full team will have returned to Envision! Most of our team have been displaced and out of work for nearly two months and we are still almost 60% shy of our initial goal.
If you are able, please consider donating to or sharing our GFM one last time to push us closer to our goal before we wrap up this campaign at the end of November! You will find that link in our bio.
As a reminder, your contribution directly benefits the dedicated individuals who work at Envision to:
• Secure upcoming payments for our teams personal bills, rent, and mortgages.
• Help cover their living expenses and put food on the table.
• Provide gas and resources for them to attend work as needed.
• Continue personal health care and well-being services.
It`s been a long couple of months for WNC/AVL residents, and this recovery wouldn`t be possible without the incredible outpouring of support from people like you!
We want to take the time to thank everyone who has either donated to or shared our campaign to raise funds for our team to help recover after Hurricane Helene. Your kindness means the world to us.
As a region, we still have a long way to go as far as recovering and rebuilding, but we are happy to say that Envision is back in full force to continue building relationships with and providing eye care to our community.
We`re excited to announce that ONLINE scheduling is here and it is so easy! Just follow the link on our website to schedule your comprehensive eye health exam today! One of our core values is Commitment to Excellence, so if you have ANY system feedback, please share with our team that way we can continue to refine and optimize this new feature. 🤓🧡

It has been just over a month since Hurricane Helene hit WNC and we want to share a few updates with you. We are extremely grateful to say that we have reopened our doors for patient care! Several of our team members are still displaced and have not been able to return to work. Some who have returned are working at reduced hours. We are nearly halfway to our goal, we still need your help! Please share our Go Fund Me far and wide to help get the message out there. You will find that link in our bio.
Your donation will help our team recover and continue to persevere. Thank you for your care and attention.
Updates on Asheville’s status: Most of the area has running water now, but it is still unsafe for drinking. Our new normal looks quite different. We hear stories from our team about having longer commutes due to the recovery efforts and road closures, and having to boil pots of water to use with portable camp showers in order to bathe safely due to the contaminated water. There are so many stories from this experience; some are heartbreaking, some are beautiful, and all are important to be heard.
This geological event has reshaped our region and things will never be the same, but our hope is to build it back better together. ❤️ Thank you for all of your support!
It`s been roughly three weeks since Hurricane Helene ravaged our town and drastically altered our way of living. Three weeks with no running water. Three weeks of gathering and distributing supplies. Three weeks of uncertainty and grief. And most importantly, three weeks of some of the most beautiful community responses you could imagine. 💖💪
Your donations and support mean the world to us as we try to land gracefully on our feet and do our part to keep our team healthy and happy. We want to express our immense gratitude from the bottom of our hearts.
For those of you who are still looking for ways to support our small but mighty, local team in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, you will find a link to our GoFundMe in our bio!
Your Donation Will Help Our Team:
- Secure upcoming payments for our teams personal bills, rent and mortgages.
- Cover their living expenses and put food on the table.
- Provide gas and resources to attend work as needed.
- Continue personal health care and well-being services.
If we could make one last request from you: PLEASE SHARE OUR GOFUNDME WITH YOUR NETWORK!
We understand that many were affected by this storm, and our team was no exception. Weeks without pay, and no timeline on when the Asheville economy will return to any semblance of normalcy means that WNC residents will need your help for quite some time to come. We appreciate your support. Again, THANK YOU.
