This #MyopiaActionMonth we raise awareness about the need for access to eyeglasses. Nearly 90% of children with unaddressed poor vision live in low- & middle-income countries. Without access to eyeglasses, these children are at risk of falling behind in school, affecting their future.

👁️ Myopia, or nearsightedness, is on the rise, especially among children. By 2050, half the world’s population may be affected. But there’s hope: early detection, affordable glasses, and access to eye care can slow myopia’s progression and protect vision for life. #MAW2026
