Sight is precious- and often taken for granted. This Sight Saving Month, we are reminded of the importance of preventing avoidable blindness and promoting eye health, especially among children and persons with disabilities.

Here are 5 simple tips to help protect your eyes:

👓 1. Wear protective eyewear when outdoors or doing activities that could harm your eyes.
🥦 2. Eat a healthy diet rich in Vitamin A (carrots, leafy greens, sweet potatoes).
💧 3. Take screen breaks, follow the 20-20-20 rule: Every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
🩺 4. Get regular eye checkups, especially for children and elderly loved ones.
🛑 5. Avoid rubbing your eyes and always wash your hands before touching them.

👶🏽 At NORFIL, we support children with visual impairments by promoting inclusive education, assistive devices, and early intervention.

Let’s take care of our eyes- so we can continue seeing the beauty of life and helping others do the same. 💙

👀 August is Sight Saving Month‼️
Mahalaga ang ating paningin kaya ugaliing magpacheck-up sa eye specialists para maagapan ang anumang problema o sakit sa mata! 👁👁

👁️ Panlalabo? Pamumula? May lumulutang sa paningin?

Ang bawat sintomas ay hindi dapat balewalain—baka senyales na ito ng problema sa mata. 👀❗

🗓️ Magpatingin ng mata kahit isang beses kada taon upang maagapan ang anumang sakit o pagbabago sa paningin.

🔎 Ang maagang pagsusuri ay susi sa malusog na paningin! 👓✅
