Giving

For millions of children and adults, the world can be blurry, distorted or hardly visible at all. The Eye Institute works to alleviate those patients’ suffering and improve the outcomes for many whose diseases were at one time untreatable. Since the Eye Institute opened more than 40 years ago, our researchers have diligently worked to understand the causes of eye disease. Discoveries in the lab, made possible in part through philanthropic support, have sparked an improved understanding and more effective methods of treatment.
