Prevent Blindness America is a volunteer organization created in order to fight blindness and save sight. This organization promotes the health and safety checking the eyes of millions of people, children and adults, each year.
Some of the problems they are concerned about are: amblyopia, school children who depend on good vision for learning, and adults threatened by glaucoma and other vision problems. How they fight these problems? They inform society through brochures, fact sheets, public service announcements, newsletters, media campaigns, special events, and this website. These campaigns about early detection of eye disease and prevention of accidents are read, heard, and seen by more than 120 million people every year. In the website you can find information about the different eye diseases, and also some advice to prevent them. Preventblindness.org also offers information about workplace programs, and gives you the opportunity to buy vision screen supplies and brochures online.
