STORIES OF HOPE
I have a full time job now!
My whole outlook on life has greatly improved. Since both eyes were bad, I felt as though I was looking through a haze. Now, after my surgeries, I feel as though I'm looking through a tropical fish tank and things are very clear now.

I am so grateful that I received this assistance. It was the first time at 57 years old that I found myself backed into a corner. And, because I could not see at all to work, nobody would loan me money to pay for the eye surgery.
I was blind for 6 months prior to surgery and I am so grateful for the assistance. No more feeling my way around the house!
-Walterboro Resident
I can drive without glasses, watch TV, and see across the road. I can see all of the vivid colors of the leaves and sky. I can see my handsome grandson's face so clearly and the list goes on!
