Huntington Beach, Calif. January 21, 2010 -- Enhanced Vision, America’s leading manufacturer of electronic magnifying solutions for the visually impaired, is now teaming up with Foundation Fighting Blindness to kick off the new year by helping to drive research and awareness for the prevention, treatment and product solutions for various retinal degenerative diseases to new heights.
“Although Enhanced Vision has worked closely with the many local FFB chapters in the past, this newly formed partnership will far outreach previous commitments and usher in a new era of change and development,” said Barron Javaheri, President of Enhanced Vision. “What better way to further our commitment to the low vision community than to partner with the world leaders of retinal degenerative disease research.”
Enhanced Vision’s support to FFB includes participation in many of FFB’s public outreach and fundraising events including Chapter Meetings, Vision Seminars and VisionWalks all across the country. These events are a perfect forum for those with low vision, as well as friends and family members to get together and learn about the latest information in preventative measures, treatments and how the latest low vision products can assist them in their daily lives.
Stephanie Wells, Director of Development for the Foundation Fighting Blindness said, “We are very excited to partner with Enhanced Vision to campaign for low vision awareness and promote independence to our constituents. Enhanced Vision has been very supportive of the Foundation for many years and together we will be able to provide the visually impaired with solutions and hope for visual independence.”
Some of the locations where Enhanced Vision and FFB will partner include Atlanta, Boston, Minneapolis, Phoenix and Dallas.
