Cleveland Sight Center

Cleveland Sight Center is a multi-faceted nonprofit agency founded in 1906 serving people of all ages who are blind or visually impaired. We provide preventative,educational, rehabilitative, and many other vision support services directly to approximately 10,000 clients in the greater Cleveland area each year. Through community outreach and our radio-reading service, that number increases significantly. We are accredited by CARF, the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities. In addition to our educational and rehabilitative programs, we have a Low Vision Clinic, offer a wide array of social and recreational activities, and have a residential camp, Highbrook Lodge, in Chardon. Our comprehensive services are available to residents of Cuyahoga, Lake, and Geauga counties, with onsite services available to anyone who can travel to Cleveland Sight Center’s University Circle location. Cleveland Sight Center values an individual’s right to lead as full and meaningful a life as he or she desires, regardless of impairment level. Our programs are designed to encourage clients to remove boundaries and achieve their goals. More than 100 specially trained staff members, including social workers, optometrists, certified vision rehabilitation therapists, orientation and mobility instructors, occupational therapists, educators, nurses, and other professionals work to help individuals with vision loss learn, work, play and live more safely and independently. Our dedicated volunteers make a significant difference in our achievements every day.
