“We are celebrating World Sight Day. It is an initiative held worldwide for the prevention of blindness. So BCVI decided to bring forth the awareness of eye prevention. We have our staff coming out today showing the different parts of the organization; rehabilitation, glasses and treatment, and basic general eye health and we are also planting a tree in commemoration of this day.”
