Prevent Blindness sends a letter to President-Elect Donald J. Trump
Last week, Prevent Blindness sent a letter to President-Elect Donald J. Trump and his transition team urging them to consider the growing impact of vision problems on our nation’s health and economy. Vision problems currently cost our nation $145 billion annually and are projected to rise to over $700 billion over the coming decades, absent significant action.
The letter, signed by Prevent Blindness leadership (Hugh Parry, President & CEO; Richard Sanchez, Board Chair; and Torrey DeKeyser, Government Affairs Committee Chair) also offered the organization’s assistance and partnership to the Trump Administration and the incoming Congress as they consider opportunities to address these problems.
