A statistic worth sharing with your team and family: More than half of the roughly 2.5 million eye injuries reported annually in the U.S. occur in or around the home โ surpassing injuries at work and school combined. As Florida's leader in vision preservation since 1957, Preserve Vision Florida is marking Home Eye Safety Month by highlighting how preventable most of these injuries are โ an estimated 90%, according to Prevent Blindness. We encourage organizations and families alike to build simple eye-safety habits into everyday routines. Learn more about our vision screening and education programs at pvfla.org.
