NEWS RELEASE: World Council of Optometry Prioritizes Child Eye Health for World Sight Day 2024

World Sight Day, 10 October 2024, highlights the importance of prioritizing child eye health and giving children everywhere the opportunity to love their eyes. Today, the World Council of Optometry (WCO) joins our partners at the International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness (IAPB) and thousands worldwide for World Sight Day 2024.

“As an employee of WCO and someone who received early intervention from an optometrist at the age of two, I understand the importance of having my child’s eyes tested. Keeping her eyes healthy will set her up for success in her development and her future.”
