Day 2 of the IAPB In Sight Live Kenya Conference reinforced a powerful message: eye health is not a privilege, it is a right, and a critical pillar of universal health coverage.
The conference was officially opened by the Cabinet Secretary for Health, Aden Duale, setting the tone for bold conversations on strengthening eye health systems and expanding access to quality, affordable care for all.
A key highlight of the day was a presentation by Jackson Smith, Country Director for Liberia, who shared compelling insights on the impact of integrated care on cataract surgical outcomes. His presentation underscored how integrated approaches can significantly improve surgical quality, efficiency, and patient outcomes within eye health programs.
Our booth continued to serve as a hub of engagement, where we welcomed partners and stakeholders for live demonstrations of the GoodVision App. These sessions sparked important dialogue on how digital innovation can strengthen service delivery, improve data use, and enhance decision-making in eye health programming.
Beyond the technical discussions, the day remained anchored in advocacy, reminding us why eye health matters. Every conversation reinforced the urgency of addressing avoidable visual impairment and ensuring that no one is left behind.
As the conference continues, we remain committed to driving partnerships, innovation, and advocacy that place eye health at the center of health systems strengthening.
