Download an outreach toolkit for World Sight Day

Glaucoma patient and director of the movie Going Blind, Joe Lovett and his team have developed a comprehensive Outreach Toolkit with details on how doctors can use the film to raise awareness of funding, educate students and patients or promote themselves.

Ophthalmology Times Europe editor, Pamela Brook, said: “Joe's film is a patient’s story and a real insight into what the ophthalmology community can do to help. I would highly recommend it. Joe was diagnosed with blindness around 22 years ago and since then has been progressively losing his vision. Six years ago he decided to make a film to document the impact that blindness had on people’s lives and to relay his own experience in living with the condition. His film really does provide surgeons with a tool for their own patient education initiatives.”
