📊 It’s World Statistics Day 👀
We might not think of statistics when we think about our eyes, but the numbers can tell us some pretty important things about eye health.
For example, around 105,000 people in the UK are estimated to experience permanent sight loss during 2026.
The good news? Regular eye exams can do much more than check whether you need new glasses. They can also help spot early signs of conditions such as glaucoma and other eye diseases, sometimes before you notice any changes to your sight.
So, today’s statistic is a simple reminder: looking after your eyes really does count 👁️💚
