How You Can Help: A Foundation for Success

Our Mission Cataract patients have told us that when you have to decide whether to put food on the table or live with poor vision, there really is no choice but to cope with deteriorating eyesight. However, with your generous assistance, you can help us help them.

While the medical teams volunteer their time and expertise, our donors become our real heroes by contributing the necessary funds to underwrite the cost of Mission Cataract surgical supplies and intraocular lenses. The average cost to treat a patient with a single cataract is $4,000. Thanks to donors like you, patients who meet the eligibility requirements will not be denied care due to their inability to pay. The care they receive is provided at no cost to them.

Every Dollar Counts!

Every dollar you donate goes to procure the essential medications and supplies required before, during and after surgery—including the sight-saving intraocular lenses that replace the patients’ damaged natural lenses. Your contribution to the Foundation plays a direct role in restoring the precious gift of vision to someone in need.

In fact, every $100 contributed to the Foundation will restore sight to one eye that has experienced visual loss due to cataracts. It’s true: The gift of sight for as little as $100! It is an extraordinary return on investment—and one that makes an instant and meaningful difference.

Through your tax deductible donation, you can help insure not only the continuation of Mission Cataract, but also the expansion of our commitment to include all forms of treatable blindness. In 2012, we performed our first corneal transplant procedure, free of charge, to a truly deserving patient. We have since performed additional corneal transplants on a case-by-case basis, only made possible through the support of our donors.

Your gift to Center For Sight Foundation is more than financial. You are giving the gift of sight restored. Please join us in our mission to deliver sight saving surgery so no one suffers vision loss due to a surgically treatable condition.
