World Sight Day with Operation Sight


Today marks World Sight Day and Operation Sight‘s National Sight Week! Every year VEI’s volunteers make cataract care accessible to uninsured Americans in financial need. Treating preventable blindness in our local community helps patients return to a life of independence and possibility.

“My experience saved my eyesight. I had cataracts at the age of 54 and I couldn’t see out of prescribed glasses on my left eye. Dr. Grubbs and his staff treated me like I was a queen. I’m very thankful for access now to of helped me see without prescribed glasses. It’s very nice not to have glasses on my face since I’ve been wearing them since the age of 14.” – Linda Toombs

“My eyes are so much better and I can see things far better! I can see far away and tell the difference between people’s faces. I would absolutely recommend this surgery for
others.”
– Zewde Bedasa

“I feel really good about my experience. I really appreciate all the medical professionals and their care very much. They did such a good job and 100% satisfied with the results. My quality of life has improved vastly!” – Jesus Maria

“This procedure was so helpful and my quality of life is a lot better! I’m so grateful you have a program to be able to help people like me. The procedure was very quick and no
hassle.”
– Linzie Holder
