My world

Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room. One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help drain the fluid from his lungs. His bed was next to the room's only window. The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back. The men talked for hours on end.

{BLOG FEATURE} Chidinma Igboanugo: Debunking misconceptions about blindness or low vision

Ushering you into June with 🤗

Most people don’t think much about their eyes until something feels off.

A little strain, a blur here and there, adjusting your screen a bit closer… and we move on. But eye health rarely “suddenly” changes.

It builds quietly, and by the time it becomes obvious, it often isn’t as simple as we wish.

This is why Chidinma Igboanugo, OD’s work stands out.

Known as The Community Eye Doctor, she is constantly pushing one message: take your eyes seriously before they force you to.

Through optometry and visual inclusion, she is helping people understand that sight is not just about seeing, but about living well and staying ahead of preventable issues.
