Restoring Sight, Restoring Lives
Michelle Yeoh shares why 2/3 of the people who are blind are women
What's the Problem? Why should people care?
285 million people are estimated to be visually impaired worldwide:
39 million are blind
and
246 million have low vision.
About 90% of the world's visually impaired live in low-income settings
(Source: WHO Visual Impairment and Blindness Factsheet 2014)
This is an unnecessary tragedy, because 80% of blindness can be cured.
That means, 4 out of 5 people who are blind can be cured.
