AMSA eNewsletter #24

The 24th Edition of AMSA International eNewsletter is finally out!
The theme of the current edition is World Sight Day (WSD) 2018.

World Sight Day (WSD) is an annual day of awareness held on October 11, to focus global attention on blindness and vision impairment. As stated by WHO, an estimated 180 million people worldwide are visually disabled. Of those, up to 80% of cases of blindness are actually avoidable, either resulting from preventable conditions (20%) or being treatable (60%) so that sight is restored. Considering the urgency and opportunity of this matter, AMSA International has also joined the world in commemoration.
