Thank You for Your Support!

During Walkathon fundraising, $21,622.07 was raised to support SightConnection's general operations. Everyone at SightConnection is deeply grateful to those who fundraised for our services! We put every possible effort in to making the walkathon a fun event to show our appreciation for our donors; however, the weather took an unexpected turn for the worst and we had to cancel the walkathon out of safety concerns. While the weather shut down the walkathon, our spirits are not dampened because you have believed in the work that we do at SightConnection. We hope that if you haven't already, you will consider donating to SightConnection so more low vision individuals can live independently.

This isn't Science Fiction: SightConnection's report on the Miniature Telescope Implant



We at SightConnection are with our clients from their Macular Degeneration diagnosis through to the untreatable end-stage of their MD, and thereafter. We see our clients apply SightConnection rehabilitative strategies to improve their quality of life and choose their best care options including drug treatments to slow the progression of their Macular Degeneration. In the final, untreatable stages of Macular Degeneration our clients learn to live with the fixed-in-size permanent blind spot in their central vision. In the following feature, SightConnection is excited to empower our clients to make an informed decision about a new treatment for end-stage Macular Degeneration. This treatment is available through the CentraSight<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001CISOnovoTdK-7917T5zWaZKA5nDTbEzcRANwbVIPldP-3gwRHnN9o2nsYDxJzNnd3Y6mdJdJDaV-0As5pBtP0gjlyPqjUwqhdJ_MjPXZjUys1xRv8y09E-6rc65XYHou> program and involves the implantation of a miniature telescope proven to compensate for the spots caused by macular degeneration.
