Mission Statement
Our Mission is to prevent blindness and preserve sight through vision screening, training to vision screen, public education and research.
Description
Established in 1965, Prevent Blindness Georgia (PBGA) is a state affiliate of Prevent Blindness, the nation's leading nonprofit eye health and safety organization, which fights blindness and saves sight by promoting a continuum of vision care. For 52 years, we have been consistently sought out as a vision expert in Georgia to provide innovative, pioneering services statewide. As leaders in the vision field, we partner with hundreds of schools, community agencies, and organizations to achieve our mission, aiming to serve people directly in their communities to raise the standards of vision care at the local level. Our mission is for no Georgian to needlessly lose their sight due to preventable vision loss.
