As of February 2025, Mumia has yet to receive treatment for the diabetic retinopathy or aggressive glaucoma. Although vision has been restored to some degree – despite the secondary cataracts being removed the underlying issues does not address his concerning eye diseases, which could rob him of the sight he has. We need the PA DOC and Wellpath to obtain ophthalmologists to treat the above eye conditions.

We ask the public to resume calls, emails and letters to SCI Mahanoy and the Secretary of the PA DOC this week. Operation hours are Monday thru Friday 9:00am to 4:00pm EST.
