“It is an honour to be able to contribute to Operation Eyesight’s mandate to prevent and treat vision loss. I have witnessed the impact on individuals, families and communities that vision loss can have. Supporting Operation Eyesight’s network of medical care providers and the critical work they perform is a very rewarding experience.”
