DescriptionThe Institute has research at every stage of development from the critical new ideas that are changing the way researchers around the world look at the future of treatment, to products in late-stage clinical trials, set to make an immediate impact on the lives of people struggling with vision-robbing diseases and injuries. The Institute has made tremendous progress in developing new cures for macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, other types of retinal and optic nerve degenerations and damage, dry eye and eye tissue transplants. There has also been great strides made in the development of new technologies - new lenses and devices - to help those with low vision make the absolute most out of the vision they have until we can reverse vision loss.Description

Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 - The Institute is a tax-exempt organization as described in Section501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and is generally exempt from income taxes pursuant to Section 501(a) of the Code. The Institute has adopted FASB ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes which requires the accounting for uncertainty in income tax recognized in an entity's financial statements.

It also provides guidance on the recognition, measurement, and classification of income tax uncertainties, along with any related interest or penalties. A tax postion is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon settlement.
