Vasser Low Vision Awareness Day

Adults ages 40 and older are at the greatest risk for eye diseases including age-related macular degeneration, cataracts, and diabetic retinopathy. These diseases are often treatable in the early stages. Learn more about preventing vision loss, attend a physician lecture, and get screened for diabetic retinopathy. Ronald Klug, M.D., will present a lecture on diabetic retinopathy at 11 a.m., followed by diabetic retinopathy eye screening from noon to 2 p.m.
