SEE AND BE SEEN
October 14, 2010 is World Sight Day
0What if you couldn’t see well enough to drive, work, or even recognize your family? We use our sense of sight every waking minute to accomplish all tasks, either simple or complex. For those of us in the developed world who need corrective lenses, they are readily available. Imagine if they were not.
Did you know there are more than one billion people globally who cannot see clearly because they do not have access to corrective eyeglasses? This lack of eye care causes a loss in quality of life, employment prospects, productivity and general health. Lack of trained optometric personnel and the cost of eyeglasses to those living in poverty aggravates this problem. (Mali has one optician for every 8 million people).
Indivijual Custom Eyewear, with their Buy One, Give One campaign, is doing its bit for the Global Vision 2020 project. Starting now, for every custom frame a customer purchases, Indivijual will donate a new pair of adjustable prescription eyeglasses to a person in need of corrective glasses in the developing world. These self-adjustable eyeglasses allow users to correct their own vision. It’s a gift Indivijual is proud to offer, a gift that ONE BILLION people deserve.
