St Patrick’s Day honours Saint Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, and is celebrated around the world with a splash of green, plenty of shamrocks, and a spirit of togetherness.

Whether you’re enjoying time with family and friends, attending a local event, or simply wearing green for the day — we hope it’s filled with joy, luck, and laughter.

👁️ World Glaucoma Day | March 12

Glaucoma is known as the “silent thief of sight” — a condition that often develops without warning signs in its early stages. Yet it remains the second leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, affecting around 80 million people.

Led globally by the World Glaucoma Association, World Glaucoma Day highlights the importance of early detection and regular comprehensive eye exams.

🔎 Did you know?
• Around 1 in 200 people aged 40 are living with glaucoma
• This rises to 1 in 8 people by age 80
• Major risk factors include age, family history, and elevated eye pressure

Vision loss from glaucoma is permanent — but early diagnosis and treatment can slow or prevent progression.

Today is a reminder to prioritise your eye health and encourage loved ones, especially those over 40, to book an eye examination.

👁️ World Glaucoma Week | March 8–14, 2026

Glaucoma is known as the “silent thief of sight” — and for good reason. It often has no symptoms in its early stages, yet it is the second leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, affecting around 80 million people.

Organised by the World Glaucoma Association, World Glaucoma Week is a global initiative to raise awareness about the importance of regular eye examinations for early detection.

🔎 Did you know?
• About 1 in 200 people aged 40 have glaucoma
• This increases to 1 in 8 people by age 80
• Key risk factors include age, family history, and high eye pressure

Because vision loss from glaucoma is permanent, early detection is crucial. A comprehensive eye exam can identify changes before you notice any symptoms.

This week, encourage your family and friends — especially those over 40 — to book an eye check. Protect your sight for the future.
