Fight for Sight
Today, belief in the power of science has never been so deserved, with vaccines against Covid-19 leading us out of a global crisis. Eye research too has made huge leaps forward, making important gains for people with sight loss.
Glaucoma is the world’s second leading cause of blindness. It affects 60 million people worldwide – nearly half a million in the UK alone.
At present sight lost from glaucoma is irreversible which is why Fight for Sight is dedicated to funding the most promising studies aimed at preventing and treating this devastating condition
