Did you know that about 75% of blindness is

preventable or curable?

Many of these cases are due to uncorrected refractive errors, the most common of which includes nearsightedness, hyperopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia.

According to the World Health Organization, there are over 160 million individuals worldwide who have visual impairment caused by different eye diseases, where 37 million are blind and the rest are suffering from low vision.

Refractive errors may not be preventable, but they can be diagnosed through an eye exam and treated with either corrective glasses or lenses, as well as through surgery.

Visit your Trusted Ophthalmologist for an eye exam to determine if you have any eye problem.
