About Us

“Just wanted to let you know what a positive and delightful experience my family and I had at the Blind Center on Wednesday.  I am 91, have macular degeneration so am vision impaired.  We went to your Center hoping to find an aid I could purchase.  We had such a great personal service from Hy and were really surprised when he said if the item I chose was in stock that it would be free to me.  What a nice surprise!  I am so grateful to the Blind Center for this experience and the vision aid I received.  Thank you SO much!  I have found the vision aid to be very helpful–I truly am thankful and blessed! May God bless you and your staff for the wonderful work and service that you are doing for those of us who are vision impaired.”  —Virgina
