Our Story
Guida was born from a deeply personal chapter in my family’s history. As my grandfather’s vision began to fade with age, I witnessed the challenges he faced—both in seeing the world around him and feeling connected to it. His journey became my inspiration.
Our mission is to ensure that no one is denied the ability to experience the beauty of the world, regardless of when or why their sight diminishes. We believe in empowering individuals with the gift of vision and enhancing their quality of life.
– Grace Zhang
