Be the Difference Today, Help Texans See Tomorrow!
Create an impact that lasts far beyond the season! At Prevent Blindness Texas, we meet people every day who are fighting to keep their world in focus. Some never knew they needed an eye exam. Many are facing preventable vision loss simply because they lack access, resources, or awareness.
But there is something powerful in moments like today, a chance to step in before vision is lost, before independence fades, before a child falls further behind.
Join us at an upcoming event!
