The Cincinnati Eye Institute Foundation CEI doctors understand that they are ideally positioned to address the eye care needs of our community.

The Cincinnati Eye Institute Foundation is a 503C charitable foundation established to preserve and improve eye sight by providing access to eye care for those who are under-served, furthering the education of ophthalmology, and funding research. CEI patients receive the very best in ophthalmic care, but CEI doctors know that many more people go without eye care because they cannot afford it, or because they are not aware of their risk factors. The CEI Foundation is one way CEI doctors and staff are able to give back to the community

Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of irreversible blindness in the U.S.—and in its early stages, it often has no warning signs. Vision loss can happen so gradually that many people don’t realize it until damage has already occurred.

The good news? Routine, comprehensive eye exams are the best defense. Early detection can help protect sight and prevent further vision loss.

This January, join the American Academy of Ophthalmology in spreading awareness and encouraging regular eye care—because protecting vision starts with prevention.

“I now have the clarity I’ve been missing for years!”

When access to vision care feels out of reach, the Cincinnati Eye Institute Foundation is here to help. Thanks to our generous supporters, we’re able to provide life-changing eye exams and glasses to those who need them most.
