EW SHOW DAILY 49 B uilding on last year's success in San Francisco during the ASCRS•ASOA Symposium & Congress, the ASCRS Foundation and TearLab (San Diego) are again partnering to sponsor the Second Annual Run for Sight in Boston on Sunday morning from 6:30 to 8:00 a.m. The 5K run/1-mile walk on Castle Island offers runners stunning views of Boston Harbor and the city skyline. Bus transportation to and from the event will be provided. All participants receive breakfast and a race T-shirt. "TearLab is honored to partner again with the ASCRS Foundation to sponsor this year's race," said TearLab president and COO Seph Jensen. "The Foundation's focus on eye health aligns with TearLab's focus on the importance of the health of the ocular surface, which is critical to getting the best and most consistent outcomes for cataract surgery." Last year, more than 330 runners helped raise more than $42,000 to support the Foundation's ongoing humanitarian programs. All money raised through the race directly benefits needy patients. "The ASCRS Foundation is doing important work to further the cause of eye health around the world through its support in the areas of research, education, and humanitarian eyecare," said Mr. Jensen. "We look forward to our continued partnership and support in 2014." Bus transportation to and from the race site will be provided from area hotels and the Boston Conven- tion & Exhibition Center.
