Perkins has the expertise to address CVI, and you can help.
With the right support, children with CVI can learn to use their vision in meaningful ways. But timing is everything: the earlier they get access to the right tools and resources, the bigger the difference it makes.
Now more than ever, we need your support to help us address the leading cause of childhood blindness and low vision.
