Today, we celebrate World Sight Day. This year we are encouraging all to make a commitment to ; it is important that you are aware of your eye health, and if you can, get a sight test or recommend others do the same.

Nearly everyone on the planet will experience an eye health issue in their lifetime, and more than a billion people worldwide do not have access to eye care services. To address the bigger picture at the country and global level, we need to be aware of our own eye health.

Pledge to have a sight test or care for your eyes and share on social media to encourage others to make the pledge too.
