Pacific Vision Foundation

Pacific Vision Foundation Pacific Vision Foundation aims to foster the highest level of eye care services to all, irrespective of their financial status.

Pacific Vision Foundation was founded in 1977 with the mission to prevent blindness and to improve vision for those who see imperfectly by fostering the highest level of eye care for the public. This is to be accomplished through contributing to excellence in patient care, improving eye care education of both medical professionals and the public, and supporting innovative ophthalmic research.

Cooking confidently. Reading a favorite book. Sewing.

What’s one activity you miss most because of vision changes?
If you feel like you’ve had to give something up, please know you’re not alone — and there may be support that helps you keep doing what matters. 💛

A magnifying glass can turn “I can’t read this” into “I’ve got it”—whether it’s mail, medication labels, a recipe, or a text message on your phone. Adaptive devices like this don’t change your diagnosis, but they can change your day-to-day independence and confidence.

If you or someone you love is finding that glasses (or even surgery) aren’t enough, low vision rehabilitation can help you learn practical tools and techniques to make the most of remaining vision.

From the waiting room to the surgical suite—this is what a typical day of care looks like at PVSC. These moments reflect the calm, coordinated process our team follows to keep patients informed, supported, and safe every step of the way.

Dr. Robert G. Webster Jr.’s career is a reminder that sometimes your calling finds you—unexpectedly.
