Hosted by advocate Christopher Hord, a new episode of the Prevent Blindness Focus on Eye Health Podcast will premiere each month.
At Prevent Blindness we promote vision health and eye care for all. We educate people about protecting their sight. We provide resources for the blind and low vision community and their allies, and we celebrate their achievements.
Each monthly half-hour episode features eye health and safety information of interest to those who want to maintain healthy vision and eye health, the blind and low vision community, healthcare professionals, caregivers, policy-makers and allies. We’ll provide regular updates on the programs and sight-saving services of Prevent Blindness.
