  • Someone about to undergo cataract surgery can benefit from knowing what items are available to help them continue an independent lifestyle.
  • Volunteers in a medical setting, such as a hospital, benefit from attending the meetings to learn how to help a person who is blind, or temporarily suffering a loss of vision.
