Singapore's Eye Health In Singapore, one in two children develops myopia by the age of 12. At 18, 83% will turn myopic. In adults, diabetic retinopathy is the leading cause of blindness. Above 50, the risk of blindness increases fifteen-fold. To address them, we need to invest in initiatives. VisionSave aims to make sight-saving treatments and high-quality eye care accessible to all.
