The eradication of blindness is a major scientific goal on par with the pursuit of cures for cancer, heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer’s disease and AIDS. Common blinding diseases like age-related macular degeneration and glaucoma affect millions of people world wide. Our researchers aim to play a leading role in the eradication of human blindness through interdisciplinary research, education, and clinical care.
