Organizers of the Rock4Sight fundraiser are making final preparations for their last show in New York, which they said is shaping up to be the best in their long-running series of annual fundraisers at the Hard Rock Café. This year we want to highlight three recent additions to the show, two of whom are practicing optometrists and truly exceptional musicians.

Rock4Sight will be back at the Hard Rock Café on Friday, March 15, 2024 to raise funds for ECN Purpose, a 501(c)(3) charity dedicated to providing eye health education and a connection to vision care for the underserved.

New York City was a busy place to be during Vision Expo East’s festivities. Here’s a look at some of the major parties that took place around town during Vision Expo East.

The Rock 4 Sight charity concert took place at the Hard Rock Café in New York Times Square. With the support of corporate sponsors and revenue from ticket sales, the show raised $172,402.

This year’s benefit concert will feature a new twist. Five tribute bands will each perform a set of songs that pay tribute to a specific artist or band featuring a combination of Blues, 60s, Soul/Funk, 70s and Classic Rock. You have to attend to find out which bands will be tributed/showcased. Organizers promise the event will have guests singing along to the greatest hits of each one.

Rock4Sight 2023 will be back at the Hard Rock Café to celebrate the optical industry and raise funds for ECN Purpose, a 501c3 Charity dedicated to providing both eye health education and connection to vision care to the underserved. The party begins on Saturday, March 18 at 8:30 pm at the Hard Rock Café in Times Square, New York City.

Nonprofit ECN Purpose shared a list of tips to help those with diabetes to protect their health and prevent eye diseases related to diabetes.

In just over two weeks, members of the Rock4Sight Band will reunite on stage at the Hard Rock Café in Times Square for the first time since performing there in 2019.

Their return to the Hard Rock, after a two-year hiatus, is a source of pride for the musicians, many of whom have played together at optical fundraisers every year since their first show in 2008.

A newly formed non-profit organization, ECN Purpose, is quickly establishing a presence within the optical industry through its partnership with a popular rock concert vision care fundraiser.

While we're laying on the sunscreen and wearing our sunglasses, it's also worth remembering that our pets can face UV damage as well if they spend too long in the sun.
