Herbst Fund for Eye Research

Funded by the Earl and Shirley Herbst Eye Research Fund, these grants promote eye research, enhance community awareness of eye disease and treatment and support ophthalmic educational opportunities for area medical providers.

Efforts we support include:

  • Community health education on eye disease and treatment.
  • Support for research institutions (preference is given to Connecticut-based research).
  • Support of education and training for doctors and health care providers involved in eye disease research (preference is given to those based in Connecticut).
