Definition

  • Eye care is a global health issue that holds significant impact on people's lives, yet it has the potential for vast improvement given the proper resources and commitment. While the most common eye care problems are low visual acuity and disorders such as cataract, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy, several other issues such as ocular infections and childhood blindness also need to be addressed.
