New adult vision screening sites added!

Prevent Blindness NC is thrilled to announce the addition of  new clinics to the adult vision screening roster this year!  This added capacity to provide free adult vision screenings was made possible through generous support from the National Association of Chronic Disease Directors (NACDD) and the Cigna Foundation.

One recently added partner is the Agape Health Services group, with clinics in both Williamston and Washington, NC. Both of these locations are very excited about the new access to retinal screenings and make screening day a dream! PBNC was able to screen nearly 30 people on the first screening date, and more dates are already on the calendar.

Prevent Blindness NC is so pleased to expand our screening capacity and would love the opportunity to do even more! Please help us spread the word to community health clinics or free clinics in need of retinal vision screenings for their diabetic patients.  For more information, contact Wendy at [email protected].
