World Sight Day 2024: A focus on child vision, eye health in Nigeria by Ugo Enwerem - ITREALMS
Commentary@ITREALMS ... making leadership SENSE with digital news!
Eyes are often called the mirrors of the soul, but they are much more than that. They are vital to how we engage with the world, influencing how we learn, work, and experience life. Yet, millions of people around the world, including many in Nigeria, are losing the ability to see clearly, with devastating consequences for their health, education, and economic prospects. As we approach World Sight Day 2024 on October 10, it’s time to renew our commitment to tackling visual impairment, with this year’s focus on children. The theme, “Love Your Eyes – Protect Your Future,” is a powerful reminder that early action can prevent many of the issues that lead to vision loss and blindness. For Nigeria, where over 4.25 million adults suffer from some form of visual impairment and 1.13 million are living with blindness, eye health is more critical than ever.
