Over 2.2 billion individuals worldwide have eye and visual issues, according to reports from the World Health Organization, which confirms comparable findings. According to the CDC, 17.2% of Americans over 40 have a cataract in at least one eye (about 20.5 million people). Over 30 million people are predicted to acquire cataracts by 2028.

The Indian government worked with WHO and the International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness (IAPB) to produce VISION 2020. They also planned other activities, like world sight day. The purpose was to raise awareness of the numerous eye issues and the precautions that should be taken to keep healthy eyes.
