10 October – World Sight Day

World Sight Day is 10 October 2024. It is an opportunity to highlight the importance of eye health for children and the opportunity to love their eyes. Join CSC in pledging to pay for a Cambodian child to have accessible, available, and affordable eye care https://csc.org/donors/.   Eye health is a global issue -  uncorrected vision impairment or disease can cause social stigma and severely impact a child's education. Simple solutions such as eyeglasses or corrective procedures can make a world of difference.
