World Sight Day is on Thursday 13th October.
World
Sight Day 2011 (WSD11) has the official, global date of the second
Thursday in October, which this year falls on the 13th. It will be marked
by organisations and institutions around the world, in many different
ways, on or around that date.
An estimated 284 million people
worldwide are visually impaired, yet 80% of cases are due to causes
which could have been prevented, treated or cured. 90% of blind people
live in developing countries, and this needless waste costs individuals,
families and communities billions of dollars every year.
