🌍👁️ October is World Blindness Awareness Month 👁️🌍

Did you know that around 80% of sight loss is preventable or treatable? Regular eye exams play a vital role in spotting conditions early, often before you notice any changes to your vision.

Some of the leading causes of blindness worldwide include:
- Cataracts.
- Glaucoma.
- Age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
- Diabetic eye disease.

The good news is that with early detection and the right care, many of these conditions can be managed, helping protect your sight for the future. This month is a reminder of how important it is to look after your eyes. Protecting your vision means protecting your independence, wellbeing and quality of life 💙
