OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
How do we educate people about eye health? How do we prevent vision loss, and how can we better support Canadians already living with it?
These are all questions that MP Judy Sgro is asking to be solved in Canada’s first-ever National Strategy for Eye care, that was tabled in government on June 3rd, 2026.
Jennifer Jones, CEO of Fighting Blindness Canada, is part of a coalition of organizations who are sharing their input on the new strategy.
Plus, Greg David, Communications Specialist at AMI, shares his personal interest in the strategy and how it relates to the work being done by AMI.
Joeita Gupta chats with Judy, Jennifer, and Greg to learn about this new government initiative and how it will work to support Canadians living with vision loss.
