Help Spread the Word About Cataract Awareness Month!
The ASCRS Foundation is at the forefront of the fight against cataract-induced blindness through Operation Sight.
Operation Sight provides free cataract surgery to those in need, ensuring that everyone has access to life-changing eyecare. Since its inception, Operation Sight has transformed countless lives by restoring vision and hope.
Help us spread the word about the ASCRS Foundation by following us on social media and promoting the Cataract Awareness Month posts.
This small effort of increasing awareness can make a significant impact in the effort to reduce the prevalence of preventable blindness.
