The Pearle Vision Foundation (PVF) is a non-profit organization dedicated to sight preservation through vision research and education. The Foundation supports research to find better treatments and cures for vision threatening diseases and disorders, and for vision education through the Dr. Stanley Pearle Scholarship Fund. PVF is focused on preserving vision through its See the Cure^TM program. Through this program, the Foundation funds research and treatment for diabetic eye diseases, in search of a cure for diabetic retinopathy, the number one cause of adult blindness in the U.S. To date, PVF has awarded over $6 million in grants committed to vision preservation. There are two deadlines this year.
