Dearest Saint Lucy,
your name means light;
by the light of faith
which God bestowed upon you,
increase and preserve his light in my soul,
so that I may avoid evil,
be zealous in the performance of good works,
and abhor nothing so much as the blindness
and the darkness of evil and sin.

Please obtain for me from God
perfect vision for my bodily eyes
and the grace to use them
for God’s greater honor and glory
and for the salvation of souls.

St. Lucy, Virgin and Martyr,
hear my prayers
and obtain what I ask.

Amen.

Relying on Your goodness, O God,
we humbly ask You,
through the intercession of Saint Lucy,
Virgin and Martyr,
to give perfect vision to our eyes,
that they may serve for Your greater honor and glory.

Saint Lucy,
hear our prayers
and obtain all that we need and desire.
