BrightFocus Foundation is a nonprofit organization supporting research and providing public education to help eradicate brain and eye diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, macular degeneration, and glaucoma. We are working to save mind and sight.
BrightFocus is at the forefront of brain and eye health, advancing early-stage, investigator-initiated research around the world. We also provide free educational materials to people affected by or interested in these diseases, empowering them to take action for themselves and others. They can take advantage of news and research results offered through BrightFocus websites, publications, social media, videos, podcasts, and TV and radio public service announcements.
Through our toll-free phone number, 1-800-437-2423, people can speak directly with a member of our information services staff, Monday through Friday from 9am to 5pm Eastern time, for support, answers to questions, and referrals.
A nonprofit organization under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of the United States, we were founded in 1973 and known until February 1, 2013 as the American Health Assistance Foundation. We chose our new name—BrightFocus Foundation—to reflect our vision of a world where everyone experiences life fully and with clarity. Read about the work of our three programs:
