About Ivision Eye Health awareness programmes

Although global blindness has been reduced in recent years, some eye conditions—such as diabetes, glaucoma, uncorrected refractive error and age-related macular degeneration are on the rise. They pose growing threats to the vision of millions, mainly in developed countries. These conditions can be treated and even prevented in some cases, but they need to be treated before it is too late Without sufficient education and awareness, millions of people do not realize they have a condition that needs treatment, or they do not know what to do. A widespread, culturally-relevant and easily-understandable eye health education program is needed around the world.
