WHO LAUNCHES THE WHOEYES APP ON WORLD SIGHT DAY

Geneva, Oct 12 (Prensa Latina) To draw attention to blindness and vision
impairment worldwide, every year on the second Thursday of October, World Sight
Day is observed. For this year’s celebration, the World Health Organization
(WHO) has launched “WHOeyes”, a free app for the general public to check how
well they can see things close up and at a distance and learn how they can
protect their eyes. The app checks visual acuity – a measure of how well the eye
can distinguish shapes and details at a given distance and is the most common
assessment of visual function.

It is a simple, non-invasive measure, which is critical to determine if someone
has a vision impairment. Many people with vision loss are unaware of it.

Regular vision checks can ensure that vision impairment is identified as early
as possible, and that action can be taken to preserve eyesight. Understanding
that engaging the public is pivotal to advance the demand for eye care services,
WHOeyes targets the entire population aged over 8 years.

WHOeyes does not replace the need for regular eye checks by an eye care
professional, and its primary objective is to encourage people to seek out eye
care. If you suspect you have vision loss, please seek the advice of a qualified
professional.

“The WHOeyes app can help people quickly and easily identify potential vision
issues that merit further checking by a qualified professional,” said Dr. Bente
Mikkelsen, WHO Director for Noncommunicable Diseases. “We decided to share this
simple eye test and quick tips for eye care on an app, as people use their
phones daily, and many people are unaware that they have a vision problem until
it is too late.”

Available in all 6 UN languages (Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian and
Spanish), the WHOeyes app can be downloaded for free both on the Apple App Store
and Google Play.
