Air Force Day
The Air Force Day was officially started celebrating at 8th
of October in the year 1932 as an auxiliary air force of Indian Empire.
The Indian Air Force, air arm of the Indian armed forces, has its prime
responsibility of securing the Indian airspace as well as to carry out
the aerial warfare during any clash.
World Sight Day is an important advocacy and communications
opportunity for the eye health community. It is a great time to engage
with a wider audience – a patient’s family, those who seldom get an eye
exam, diabetics – and showcase why eye health needs everybody’s
attention.
World Sight Day 2015 will be on 8 October 2015. This year’s call to action:
Eye care for all
This year, IAPB urges you to focus on everybody who needs eye care
services – everybody. Think of all the groups of people who need eye
care – especially the most vulnerable or the ones most in need. What can
we do to bring eye care to them all? How can we ensure that access to
eye care is not limited by gender or geographic location, or even
financial status? Do remember, ‘Eye Health’ also includes rehabilitation
and assistive services for those with irreversible vision loss.
This World Sight Day, let’s do something that will draw attention to the great unmet need in eye care services.
