Finding cures for blinding eye diseases
The University of Southampton Gift of Sight Appeal was established with the aim of funding world-class research into the prevention and treatment of blindness.
Your generous philanthropic gifts, including Legacies and Direct Debits, means that we are able to help our scientists investigate the causes of blinding eye diseases, leading to potential new treatments and therapies for patients.
