Residents of New York state can access the Blindline, a
statewide service created by Visions and AFB, providing
a database of organizations and programs for the visually
impaired and their family members. Simply call the hotline

If you have a vision impairment, speak with your eye care
professional about which sunglasses best suit your needs.
Absorptive lenses come in many tints with varying degrees
of light transmission. They're available in designs that fit
over your glasses, slip behind regular glasses, clip on or flip
up. And be sure they offer complete UV protection.
