On philanthropic partners like Eyesight Foundation of Alabama helping fund research: “The Discoveries we make are their discoveries as well. They help us find vision cures. I hope they understand the critical role they play.”

The EyeSight Foundation of Alabama is proud to be part of a national coalition of 10 leading organizations that today announced scEYEnce, a new media campaign that shines a spotlight on the powerful benefits of vision research.

This multi-faceted scEYEnce campaign will raise much needed awareness about the critical role sight plays in our health and well-being. It will use traditional and social media outreach to highlight cutting edge research and the scientists conducting it, graphics that illustrate the impact of vision loss, and a resource-rich website to make it easy to find the stories and sources needed to effectively communicate about vision research.
