Tomorrow is World Sight Day, a reminder that vision health is a global issue. Around the world, millions of people experience preventable or treatable vision loss, often without access to the care, resources, and support they need. While many communities face significant barriers to vision services, our region is fortunate to have Metrolina Association for the Blind providing critical training, rehabilitation, and resources for our neighbors living with vision loss. This World Sight Day, celebrate the gift of sight by helping ensure people in our community have the support they need to adapt, thrive, and pursue their goals. Make a gift to MAB today and help create a more accessible and inclusive future for people with vision loss.

On September 17, 2026, MAB Staff attended the Charlotte Vision Connection. This was an evening of speakers, resource booths, and a tour of the Braille Trail. Our Low Vision Optometrist, Dr. Hoffman spoke at this event to discuss what MAB does and how to get the resources you need at MAB. This was a great opportunity to learn about the resources in our community.
