Vision Loss and Veterans

You have served our country, now we serve you.

On Veteran’s Day we take time to acknowledge the sacrifice and dedication of our service members and their families. At Hope Vision Foundation Veterans and their families hold a special place in our hearts. Our board has three military veterans and three experts who served in the VA low vision and blind rehab program.

This year Hope Vision Foundation would like to honor our veterans with a special thank you and a list of resources just for you.
