Some Background Info
- 2.2 billion people have a visual impairment (WHO-2020)
- At least 1 billion of these are suffering from the preventable or treatable eye health issues
- Globally 65M people are blind or visually impaired due to cataract
- Cataract, one of the major eye diseases, is responsible for half of all cases of blindness and 33% of visual impairment worldwide.
