👁️ Cataract Awareness Month
June is Cataract Awareness Month, focusing on one of the most common causes of vision impairment worldwide.
Cataracts can develop gradually, often affecting daily activities such as reading, driving, or recognising faces. The good news is that treatment is safe, effective, and widely available. Early detection and timely care can significantly improve quality of life.
This month encourages everyone to prioritise their eye health—attend regular eye checks, be aware of changes in vision, and seek advice if you have concerns. Looking after your sight is an important part of maintaining overall health and independence 💙
