Translation of their own introduction:
People with a visual impairment can come to us for daily support or treatment. But also for diagnosis and education. We have our own schools, residential facilities and all kinds of daytime activities. We also do a lot of research and advice throughout the country on the latest insights. We believe it is important to share our knowledge and experience with other organizations.
