Journée mondiale de la vue 2025
Aujourd’hui, en tant que communauté mondiale des étudiants en optométrie, nous élevons nos voix — non seulement pour la vision, mais pour une cause.

Les étudiants en optométrie à travers le monde dépistent les yeux, sensibilisent les communautés et se tiennent dans l’intervalle entre la cécité et l’espoir.

Voici votre rappel :
📌 Votre action sur le terrain compte.
📌 Votre passion est puissante.
📌 Votre parcours façonne l’avenir des soins oculaires dans le monde.
Même lorsque c’est difficile — ne baissez pas les bras.
Vous n’étudiez pas simplement l’optométrie. Vous changez des vies.
💡 Soyez la lumière. Soyez la lentille. Soyez le leader.

يوم البصر العالمي 2025
اليوم، وبصفتنا مجتمع طلاب البصريات العالمي، نرفع أصواتنا — ليس فقط من أجل الرؤية، بل من أجل الغاية.

طلاب البصريات حول العالم يقومون بفحص العيون، وتثقيف المجتمعات، والوقوف في الفجوة بين العمى والأمل.

تذكيرك اليوم:
📌 جهودك التوعوية لها قيمة.
📌 شغفك له قوة.
📌 رحلتك تُشكّل مستقبل رعاية العيون العالمية.
حتى عندما يكون الأمر صعبًا — لا تستسلم.
أنت لا تدرس البصريات فقط. أنت تُغيّر الحياة.
💡 كن النور. كن العدسة. كن القائد.

Even when it’s tough—don’t give up.
You’re not just studying optometry.
You’re changing lives.

💡 Be the light.
Be the lens.
Be the leader.
