OGS Invites Optical Industry to Support Our Children’s Vision Campaign

(Calgary, AB): Optometry Giving Sight (OGS) invites all members of the Optometric profession and industry to join them in support of Our Children’s Vision, a global campaign helping to ensure that every child, everywhere, has access to the eye care they need.

There are millions of children around the world and in Canada who are needlessly vision impaired. The rate of myopia is increasing rapidly and could affect 5 billion people by the year 2050.

Since launching in April 2016, Our Children’s Vision has reached 10 million children. This includes four million children in Mexico who were given an eye exam as part of the Ver Bien “See Well to Learn Better” program which is part funded by Optometry Giving Sight.

Optometrists who would like to JOIN OGS in their efforts to help more children can do so by:

  • making a small donation for every pair of glasses or frames sold over the next two months
  • inviting your patients to make a $5 donation

Industry members are invited to support the campaign by:

Safilo’s American Eyes Exhibition for Spring 2017

Safilo celebrates the Spring 2017 reintroduction of its own flagship Elasta and Emozioni ophthalmic collections with a captivating exhibition in New York City called American Eyes. The exhibition is an homage to American opticians – celebrating the people, optical shops and landscapes they call home.

Timed to Vision Expo East, American Eyes, by Italian artist Gianluca Vassallo, is a journey of images representing a cross-section of America. The images by the artist Gianluca Vassallo show large expanses of cultivated fields, rural villages and characteristic optical shops where opticians work with love.

The eight Safilo accounts depicted in the exhibit are from Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York and were selected for their unique locations and high regard for the Elasta and Emozioni collections which have filled an important niche in their practices.

In addition to the photographic images, the gallery exhibition encompasses eyewear from the Spring 2017 Elasta and Emozioni collections, interspersing the display of the introspective eye of the artist with the real optical devices used for vision correction.
