About Tom Sawyer

As part of Cleveland Sight Center\'s Education & Advocacy department, I\'m the outreach specialist \"In Community\" virtually and in-person all around Northeast Ohio giving presentations and participating at local events. Our presentations have vision related themes and we can tailor our presentations based on time constraints, area of interest and group demographics. We talk with students in schools to seniors living or visiting senior communities, first responders and medical staff, business club members or any group of people interested in vision related topics. Cleveland Sight Center serves adults in nine counties within Northeast Ohio - Ashtabula, Cuyahoga, Geauga, Lake, Lorain, Medina, Portage, Stark and Summit. Our Children and Young Adult Services serve the counties listed above in addition to other counties in Ohio on an as needed basis.

Our Mission: To provide individualized support and tools to navigate the visual world. Who we are: We are a team of professionals dedicated to providing the support and tools needed to navigate the visual world. Our team of optometrists, vision rehabilitation therapists, teachers, employment specialists and other staff assess one’s needs with empathy and professionalism, seeking to help each individual understand his or her unique vision-related challenges and the resources available to them. Why We Are Here: We live in a world that is designed for those with clear vision, creating challenges for those with less than clear vision. These challenges can be intimidating, isolating, and seemingly unfair, but, we believe the quality of one’s sight should not determine the quality of one’s life. Our mission is to provide support and tools to overcome sight challenges that exist in the visual world. What We Do: We assess each individual’s specific needs, seeking to understand their vision-related challenges and goals. We then create an individualized plan to support them in reaching those goals through training on a variety of tools and techniques. We educate the community about the resources and opportunities available for those with less than clear vision, while also advocating for community awareness in a world designed for those with clear vision. How We Do It: We support individuals of all ages with a high level of compassion and expertise through individualized services that may include: -Vision exams and assessments -Recommendations and instruction on low vision aids and assistive technology -Training on tools and techniques -Education and support to children and families -Employment opportunities within CSC or other organizations -Advocacy for accessibility needs in school, work and community -Recreation and socialization activities -Counseling and peer support groups
