Founded in 1965, Prevent Blindness Georgia (PBGA) is the state affiliate of Prevent Blindness, the leading voluntary eye health organization dedicated to the prevention of blindness and the preservation of sight. With a mission of preventing blindness and preserving sight, Prevent Blindness Georgia annually provides vision screenings for nearly 40,000 prekindergarten children as well as vision screening training for school and public health nurses to make sure our state's children are "vision ready" to learn. Prevent Blindness Georgia also provides free eye exams, retinal scans, and prescription glasses to uninsured Georgians through a network of free health clinics and community agencies that serve the homeless, victims of domestic violence, Veterans, migrant farm workers, and others who would otherwise be without eyecare.

Thank you, Dr. Lipsky, for championing the futures of Georgia's children and inspiring PBGA's work to make a brighter world possible for every child.

At our 60th Anniversary Night for Sight Gala, we were honored to recognize Dr. Taz Bhatia for her leadership, voice, and unwavering commitment to the health and well-being of children and adults across Georgia.

Her message on stage reminded us of something we know to be true: providers are the heartbeat of vision care. Every exam, every diagnosis, every moment spent educating and advocating for a family helps move the needle forward and change lives.

We are profoundly grateful for the physicians, specialists, nurses, optometrists, school partners, and every provider who stands with us to ensure Georgians receive the eye care they deserve. Your dedication makes our mission possible!

Thank you, Dr. Taz MD, for inspiring us, and thank you to all the providers who help us protect sight across the state. 💙👁
