A group of optometry students are set to complete a World Sight Day Challenge fundraising first by cycling from Glasgow to Cardiff. The ‘Optoms Cycling for Sight’ sponsored bike ride will link UK optometry departments across 10 days, starting at Glasgow Caledonian University on 13th September before making stops at Bradford, Manchester, Aston, Anglia, City and finishing at Cardiff University on 23rd September. The initiative has being initiated by Bradford University students Jessica MacIsaac, Fares Hatoum and Abubakr Patel. Jessica, Optometry Today Student Representative, comments: “Optoms Cycling for Sight aims to get all optometry students as a united force behind the World Sight Day Challenge, as we can play a critical role in helping to provide access to eye care in the developing world”. Jessica Explains “Hopefully the success of this will lead to annual event where we can continue to make a difference to the 670 million people who are blind or vision impaired simply because they do not have access to an eye examination and a pair of spectacles.” Read more...
