The Importance
of Vision Health
Our vision allows us to connect, learn, work, explore, and experience life to the fullest. Yet, eye health often takes a back seat to other wellness priorities until problems arise. Sightober is about changing that story and making vision care a year-round commitment for everyone, at every age.
Healthy eyes are essential for independence, success, and wellbeing throughout life. From children learning to read to adults thriving in their careers and older adults maintaining active lifestyles, vision impacts so much of our daily experience. But unfortunately, more than 2.2 billion people worldwide live with some form of vision impairment, and nearly half of these cases are preventable or unaddressed.
In the United States, about 61% of adults need vision correction, but many skip regular eye exams until their sight is noticeably affected.
Neglecting vision health can lead to vision issues that may impact job performance, academics, personal safety, and overall quality of life. Certain eye conditions, like glaucoma or diabetic retinopathy, often develop without early symptoms, and by the time vision loss is noticed, the damage may be irreversible.
Prioritizing your eye health means catching these issues early. Learn more about how you can make vision care a part of your everyday routine.
