SEE THE VALUE OF VISION

CREATING SIGHT-SAVING CHANGE

Sight is a powerful sense; one which many are afraid to lose. Every day I hear from someone - a patient, a student, a researcher, even our alumni - about the impact we have on their lives and the lives of others through helping them see better. And this impact multiplies throughout their communities with access to high quality eye care, ensuring a robust and diverse optometric workforce, and leading vision research. We have the power to impact change in the future of eye care with your support. SUNY College of Optometry Foundation sits at the apex of providing sight-saving help to our community. Through providing

access to eye care for everyone to educating future providers, our work is underpinned by a robust research program that ultimately changes lives. Patients around the world benefit from the discoveries while future optometrists experience innovation throughout their academic program into practice. Today, we challenge you to act on the Value of Vision and make a difference in the lives of your friends, family, and community members.
