Lion's Vision Uniting Lions of Multiple District 22 in educational and financial support of research in all types

The Lions Vision Rehabilitation Foundation (LVRF) is a private, nonprofit foundation that secures and manages its own funds. It is governed by a 23-member Board of Trustees elected from the Multiple District 22 Lions membership, plus three Wilmer faculty. The Board oversees the Foundation's activities and finances, and informs Lions throughout the Multiple District of advances in research and pati

ent care at Wilmer. The primary purpose of the Lions Vision Research Foundation (LVRF) is to support low vision research and rehabilitation to minimize the disabilities caused by low vision and blindness. The objectives of the LVRF are being met through its partnership with the Lions Vision Research and Rehabilitation Center (LVC), at the Wilmer Eye Institute of The Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions, Baltimore, Maryland.

After the snow in January and this virus in March caused the LVRF Meetings to be canceled. There will be a Zoom meeting for the May meeting. I'd always heard that necessity was the mother of all inventions. In this case, necessity is the mother of making use of inventions for us that are reluctant to change and perform tasks in a new or different way.

Some other exciting things had to be delayed but here is the information on the rescheduling and getting back to whatever our new normal will be.

See next posts for the information. Thanks for stopping by and visiting with us today.

Lions Emerging Leaders event was held on April 3 and 4, 2019. Eschenbach Optik sponsored a third-year and fourth-year optometry student to attend this two day learning opportunity. We greatly appreciate the support received from Eschenbach Optik. After attending, it is hoped that their interest in academic medicine or low vision rehabilitation will be increased.

PDG Larry Burton, Chairman for the Lions Vision Research Foundation, Inc. was among those that attended on April 4th.

Do you know this doctor? She is the newest Lions Fellow which is supported by Lions Vision Research Foundation, Inc. supporters. Lions and their communities have made it possible to have a Fellow in the area of Low Vision at the Wilmer Eye Institute and work for the Lions Low Vision Center.

This is one of only two educational institutions that have a fellowship in low vision. AND the ONLY Lions Fellowship in Low Vision in the United States.

So if you see this face while visiting Wilmer Eye Institute's Low Vision Center, say hello and welcome this fine doctor and naval officer.

Share with your fellow Lions.
