2023 Virtual Vision Research Symposium
CEBF held its third annual Virtual Vision Research Symposium on February 28th, 2023. We featured ten ophthalmology professionals from Northeast Ohio’s finest institutions to present their current research on blinding diseases. They presented on children’s vision issues, age-related macular degeneration, and glaucoma. Each section featured two informative presentations, followed by a moderator-lead panel discussion. 

People from all over the world tuned in to hear about the cutting-edge research happening here in Cleveland – we are already looking forward to next year’s symposium!

Supporter Reception Event
In fall 2022, CEBF hosted its community of supporters for an evening of hors d’oeuvres, Foundation updates, and an honoring of a former CEBF leader, Sue Janssen.

It was a wonderful night celebrating the accomplishments of local vision research, together.

Virtual Vision Research Symposium
