WILMINGTON, NC – HOPE IN SIGHT, a local non-profit organization, is excited to announce their first fundraising event dedicated to supporting individuals suffering from Dry Eye Disease. The “Cheers for Tears: Fund the Fight Against Dry Eye!” Winter Garden Party will take place at Blooms & Branches Garden Center located at 5523 Oleander Drive, on Friday, January 26, 2024

Dry Eye Disease affects millions of people worldwide, causing severe discomfort and potentially impacting vision and their quality of life. This fundraiser aims to raise awareness about the condition and generate funds to assist those who cannot afford treatment.

"We believe that everyone deserves the right to have comfortable vision," says Dr. Crystal Brimer, O.D., of Dry Eye Equation. "Every dollar helps fund advanced treatments for patients who cannot afford their treatments. With the support of our generous community, we can make a significant impact on the lives of those affected by Dry Eye Disease."

The event will include guest speakers, free wine tasting, catering, live acoustic and music performances, and a silent/live auction with RLC Auctioneers. All proceeds will go directly towards funding Dry Eye Disease treatments for patients in our community. We invite all members of the Wilmington community and beyond to join us in this worthy cause. Together, we can bring relief and support to those affected by Dry Eye Disease.
