Advocating for Increased Fuding

We work tirelessly to advocate for increased federal funding, ensuring that NEI has the resources needed for groundbreaking treatments.

Bridging the Gap

From championing the importance of basic science to amplifying the impact of translational research, we connect the dots between policymakers, researchers, and the public.

Showcasing Life-Changing Innovations

Through educational initiatives, such as Congressional Briefings and advocacy days, we bring NEI-supported research to Capitol Hill.

Providing Unwavering Support

By advocating for robust and sustained funding, we empower NEI to transform lives, ensuring a brighter future for all Americans.

Far Reaching Impact

We help underscore how federal investment in vision science yields profound returns—not only in terms of health but also economic and societal benefits.

Federal Funding

While we deeply appreciate Congress’s commitment to sustaining funding for vision research, level funding amidst rising costs equates to a reduction in resources, limiting the potential for critical advancements. We support the urgent need for increased investment in the mission to protect and restore vision, ensuring that cutting-edge research continues to improve quality of life for millions of Americans.
