Two Blind Brothers Named Presenting Sponsor of 2026 Night for Sight Gala

Foundation Fighting Blindness will host its annual Night for Sight gala on May 14, 2026, at Guastavino’s in New York City, bringing together supporters of vision research and advocacy.

This year’s event will feature Two Blind Brothers as Presenting Sponsor and Announcer of the Visionary Award Honorees. Founded by brothers Bradford and Bryan Manning, both diagnosed with Stargardt disease, the company was created to help fund research and raise awareness for blinding eye conditions. According to the organization, Two Blind Brothers donates 100% of its profits to organizations advancing research and awareness, including nearly $2 million in support of the Foundation Fighting Blindness.

In addition to its apparel business, the company has expanded into eyewear through a branded collection developed with L’Amy America and distributed in Canada by Centennial Optical. The collection launched in Canada in November 2024 and is available through optical retailers nationwide.

Centennial Optical reports that a portion of proceeds from every 2BB frame sold in Canada is donated to Fighting Blindness Canada, supporting vision research initiatives domestically. Fighting Blindness Canada is the country’s largest charitable funder of vision research.

Night for Sight serves as a flagship fundraising event for the Foundation Fighting Blindness, supporting the development of treatments and cures for inherited retinal diseases and other blinding conditions.

For more information on the eyewear collection, Canadian Eye Care Professionals can contact their Centennial Optical representative.
