Every 5 seconds one person in the world goes blind, and a child goes blind every minute. 75% of all blindness is avoidable, either preventable or treatable. 90% of all avoidable blindness occurs in the developing countries. VISION 2020: The Right to Sight is a global initiative which aims to help eliminate avoidable blindness by the year 2020.
