Help Aaron Keep His Vision

Donation protected

Hey everybody, I’ve never done something like this, but I wanted to reach out to my network for help.


One of my very best friends, Aaron Orr, has an extremely rare condition known as keratoconus. It affects 1/200,000 people. Basically the lenses of his eyes are gradually changing shape, which ultimately will cause total blindness in the next 3-5 years.


He just got fitted with special contacts that help him see (he’s almost totally lost vision in one eye), but the best treatment available right now is called corneal cross linking, which is essentially layering Vitamin B, specifically Riboflavin, over his eyes, which prevents further degradation and may help regain some lost. This procedure costs roughly $15,000 out of pocket.


I ask that you please contribute whatever you can to Aaron. He’s been one of my very best friends for years now, and is one of the best men I know.


Help Aaron see his daughter graduate!
