Foundation Fighting Blindness:

Triangle VisionWalk

Eureka

Our team is walking in support of the fight against retinal degenerative diseases. With your involvement, we can help make a difference in the lives of all people living with vision loss and their families. Proceeds of the walk will help us reach out to more people in our area living with vision loss, as well as fund promising research into the cause, treatment and cures for retinal degenerative diseases.
This year, we have twelve team members, including the Johnsons, the Vijays, some great photogs from Flickr and us. Joining us this year will be our new puppies!
Walk with us! Join or Sponsor Our Team.
Time to get out those walking shoes!

Friend of FFB, You Can Make a Difference!

Did you know that...

Over nine million Americans of every age and race suffer vision loss from blinding diseases such as macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa, stargardt disease and Usher syndrome.
Macular degeneration (AMD), has inherited risks, is characterized by a progressive loss of central vision, and is the leading cause of legal blindness in adults over age 55.
RP and Usher syndrome are inherited diseases commonly diagnosed during childhood or young adulthood. RP causes severe vision loss leading to legal and/or complete blindness. Children with Usher syndrome are born with varying degrees of deafness and later develop RP.

Your donation will help support cutting-edge research in promising areas such as genetics, gene therapy, retinal cell transplantation, artificial retinal implants, and pharmaceutical and nutritional therapies that will one day put an end to retinal diseases.

With Your Help, A Cure is in Sight!
