An increase in the aging population, changes in lifestyle and nutrition put us all at risk of visual impairment. Early eye screening can help detect Diabetic Retinopathy and other eye diseases, and provide timely treatment to prevent permanent blindness. During tough times like the COVID-19 where adults are working from home and children are engaged in home-based learning, the number of hours we spend on the screen is inevitably higher. This increases the risk of myopia.
Take your eyes off the screen regularly to stretch and join Orbis Run 20/20. You can help us Save Sight with Exercise today by making a donation! With just S$25, you can help Orbis in our mission to raise awareness of the importance of eye health.
We welcome any amount you can provide because your support will go a long way in helping us to continue our mission to prevent avoidable blindness. Let’s encourage everyone through Run 20/20 to protect our eyesight by developing good habits, improving our lifestyle and going for early eye screening.
