Research to Prevent Blindness

Invest in Sight

Research to Prevent Blindness preserves and restores vision by supporting cutting-edge research into eye diseases. We provide research grants that lead to the development of treatments, preventives and cures for all conditions that damage and destroy sight.

Thanks to supporters like you, since it was founded in 1960, RPB funding has been identified with nearly every major breakthrough in vision research.
