World Sight Day: Love Your Eyes —
Angel Eyes Vision LOVES your eyes. Your sight and eye health are important to us because your vision is one of the primary ways you interact with the world. This year, on October 8th, we invite you to celebrate your eyes with us for World Sight Day!
Originally initiated by the Lions Club International Foundation, the celebration and recognition of World Sight Day was later taken up by the International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness (IAPB) in partnership with Orbis, an international nonprofit organization with a focus on eye care where it is less accessible. The main purpose of this day is for the eye care community to raise awareness for vision loss prevention. This year, Angel Eyes Vision wants to specifically highlight Orbis and their impact on global sight.
Strengthening the eyecare workforce in rwanda
Orbis and the Rwanda International Institute of Ophthalmology (RIIO) started their partnership in 2016 to raise awareness and establish solutions to the preventable vision-loss crisis in Rwanda. Orbis’s latest mission sent them to Kigali, Rwanda in their signature Flying Eye Hospital. The MD-10 aircraft, donated by Memphis' very own FedEx, provides a training ground for eye care professionals in underserved communities to learn and perform sight-saving procedures like cataract surgery, pediatric strabismus surgery, and oculoplastic operations. After two weeks of virtual and hands-on training, the RIIO received all the virtual reality training equipment used at the Flying Eye Hospital to ensure continual eye care for the community for generations to come.
