Niagara, Ontario – A special event will be held on October 1, 2015, celebrating the opening of Niagara’s first Eye Wellness Centre and will feature Canadian celebrity Chef Anna Olson.

Eye Wellness, which opened on August 31 st, 2015, is the first of its kind in the region. It offers an innovative vision and health centre that brings together industry leaders in nutrition, optometry, fitness and complementary medicine to help ensure superior visual performance in all their patients. The event is open for anyone who wishes to attend.
Chef Olson is enthusiastic about the innovative approach Dr. Capogna is developing. “It just makes sense to look at the overall health and lifestyle of a person as a part of their eye health. The eyes are a system within the body, just like your heart is, directly affected by overall health and well- being,” stated Celebrity Chef Anna Olson.

Seva Canada, along with their partners in the Kilimanjaro project, Seva Foundation and the Kilimanjaro Centre for Community Ophthalmology (KCCO), received the Champalimaud Vision Award on September 7th, for their contributions alleviating vision problems in the developing world.
The Kilimanjaro project is dedicated to fighting poverty and blindness in east Africa. “Two-thirds of blind people worldwide are women and Seva Canada’s programs are designed specifically to develop strategies to reduce gender inequity and provide the necessary care to women and girls,” said Penny Lyons, Executive Director of Seva Canada. “Women and children are not able to travel freely and in most cases will stay blind until eye care comes to their doorstep. Simple strategies are often the most effective in overcoming the barriers women and girls face in accessing care.”
Established in 2007 to recognize contributions to vision research, the Champalimaud Vision Award includes a 1 million euro prize and is administered by the Champalimaud Foundation, associated with a Portuguese biomedical research clinic.
