Mission: Established in 1978 by Samuel M. Genensky, Ph.D., The Center for the Partially Sighted is nationally renowned for its programs in low vision care and has continued its dedication to helping partially sighted individuals maximize the use of any remaining vision.

As founding Chairman of the Board and Chairman for 25 years I am proud of the growing importance of The Center over the years. Sam Genensky,the founder and former CEO, and LaDonna Ringering the present CEO, have done a fabulous job in growing the number of clients over the years by stressing the results the Center provided to people who thought they were gonig blind and learned there are ways to curb the loss of vision so independent living can be continued.

CPS is an organization like no other that helps people with impaired vision lead a full and productive life. Vision loss affects people of any age from all walks of life and CPS is there to help. As a practicing ophthalmologist it is fantastic to have a place like The Center to refer my patients. As a board member it is so important to me that we increase the public awareness of the unique services and programs that are offered through The Center so we can reach those people that need our help. If you or someone you know is suffering from vision impairment please contact us to see how The Center can make a difference.
