Welcome to United in Vision 2026!
Wednesday, June 10–Saturday, June 13, 2026
The United in Vision 2026 conference unites two prestigious events—the Foundation Fighting Blindness VISIONS conference and the Retinal International World Congress—into one extraordinary global gathering. Scheduled from Wednesday, June 10, to Saturday, June 13, 2026, at the Omni Fort Worth Hotel and Fort Worth Convention Center in Fort Worth, Texas, this premier event brings together individuals and families impacted by blinding retinal conditions, alongside leading researchers, clinicians, patient advocates, and industry partners, to foster collaboration, innovation, and hope.
With over 1,000 participants expected from across the globe, the conference provides a unique opportunity to connect with a diverse community, including those living with retinitis pigmentosa, Usher syndrome, Stargardt disease, Leber congenital amaurosis, age-related macular degeneration, and other blinding retinal conditions. Attendees will explore cutting-edge advancements in research, emerging therapies, and innovations in assistive technologies, products, and services. Sessions led by globally recognized experts and advocates will address solutions to improve treatment access and enhance quality of life for individuals affected by these conditions.
Beyond knowledge-sharing and collaboration, the event celebrates the strength, achievements, and resilience of the global blind and low-vision community. Whether you’re seeking the latest scientific updates, networking opportunities, or practical resources to enrich daily life, United in Vision 2026 offers a transformative experience for everyone.
Together, we are stronger, united by a shared vision for a brighter future. We warmly invite you to join us for this groundbreaking event!
