π Embrace the Gift of Sight on World Sight Day! π
ππThe World Sight Day, observed annually on the second Thursday of October, is a global event meant to draw attention to blindness and vision impairment. This day we join hands with people from all corners of the globe to raise awareness about a precious gift we often take for granted – our sight. ππ
