Two Thousand Canadians Lose Sight
Every Year According to CNIB Records
"You probably didn't stop to
think about losing your sight
yesterday," said Jack Clements,
field secretary for this area with
The Canadian National Institute
for the Blind. "The same is
true of six other people. But
they did lose their sight. Yes,
two thousand lose their sight
every year!"
This figure is frightening to
The Canadian National Institute
for the Blind. So far, all the
valiant efforts by the profes-
sional prevention of blindness
staff at CNIB has not lessened
the number. The ,CNIB contin-
ues to aid local organizations
with glaucoma surveys, pro-
vides eye examinations for pre-
schoolers in depressed areas,
and trys to convince .a doubting
public that children will not
outgrow crossed eyes. CNIB in-
formation officers, with the co-
operation of the Industrial Acci-
dent Prevention Association, try
to convince f act o r y workers
that safety glasses prevent a
world of darkness.
"Why don't people listen?"
said Mr. Clements. "I am blind.
I know that with perseverance,

handicap. But I know only too
well exactly what a blind per-
son misses. When I ,hear about
kids with fireworks, I shiver.
When I hear about people with
sore eyes and headaches who
say that they will wait and see
if it clears up before they go to
an eye doctor, I shiver some
more. They should know that
if they wait and see, they may
never see."
