Blindness is a gender issue – one that leaves millions of women and girls without the same access to quality eye care that men receive. Thanks to our amazing local partners and committed supporters, we're working to close the gender blindness gap and help women and girls reach their full potential.
Why do we believe blindness is a gender issue? Here's why ...
139 million women & girls are living with blindness & vision loss
That's 25 million more women than men
70% of people affected by blinding trachoma are women
2 out of 3 children living with blindness are girls
Watch this video & share if you see the potential in women & girls
If you see women and girl’s potential and think they deserve equal access to quality eye care, sign our pledge today.
