National Sight Week, Step Up for Sight
October 18-24, 2020
National Sight Week celebrates the impact of volunteerism on the lives of patients across the country through Operation Sight. Step Up for Sight is a call for current and future volunteers to get involved with Operation Sight. With the economic effects of the pandemic, applicants are expressing financial distress, loss of employment and insurance. The need has never been greater for the ophthalmology community to harness its collective power and change lives! Get involved today!
- Step Up and Give Sight! Your practice can provide charitable cataract surgeries and help eligible Operation Sight patients awaiting surgery. Register as a volunteer today!
- Step Up and Refer! Check the map below to find the areas where Operation Sight needs additional volunteers to meet the increased need.
- Step Up and Share! Share a memorable patient story with us at info@ascrsfoundation.org and we'll showcase your impact!
