The earlier tomorrow’s Hongkongers start learning about vision, the healthier the eyes of the world will be! To raise awareness of sight-related issues, Orbis has pioneered a dynamic educational campaign for local kindergartens, primary schools, secondary schools, and universities. In addition to subjects from the World Health Organization (WHO), topics covered include how supporting Orbis will stop needless blindness from destroying lives in the world’s poorest countries.
Campus eye care workshops and growth activities
With the increasing usage of e-learning, children are used to staring at electronic devices for a longer time which places an intolerable strain on developing eyes. To improve eye care education amongst kids, Orbis is building sensible eye care habits via interactive and educational games. Let's open children’s eyes to the wonders of the world.
Raising Eyecare Awareness in Youngsters All Over Hong Kong
School Talks
Orbis is pleased to offer eye care lectures to schools, enhancing students' awareness of eye health. We believe that educating young people about the importance of eye health is crucial. As long as schools participate in any of the above activities, regardless of the donation amount, all participating schools will receive a free interactive eye care talk designed to meet the needs of different age groups, laying a solid foundation for children's vision health!
Topics for Eye Care Talks:
- Eye-Delicious Food Adventure (Kindergarten) - Learn which foods are beneficial for eye health and understand how vitamins and nutrients help protect vision.
- A Day in the Life of my Eyes (Kindergarten) - Record daily eye usage habits to help children understand their vision usage and learn to arrange their screen time reasonably.
- “Eye” phone (Kindergarten) - Explore safe ways to use mobile phones, including proper viewing distances and techniques to reduce blue light exposure.
- A Battle with Myopia (Primary School) - Understand the causes and preventive measures of myopia, learn eye care tips, and recognize the importance of outdoor activities.
- If I Couldn’t See (Primary School) - Reflect on the situation of losing vision, using role play to understand the importance of sight and cherish their eyes.
- Global Eye Health Trends (Secondary School) - Learn about global eye diseases and their impacts, acquire daily eye care knowledge, and care for the vision health of those around them.
Orbis supports offline or online modes of eyecare workshops. Welcome all schools to join, Orbis Campus Team will contact you for confirmation after enrolling.
More Eye Health Education Platforms and Information
Blind children from remote corners of the world’s poorest nations not only lack educational opportunities, they frequently die because they are deprived of the essential nutrients and family care most young Hongkongers take for granted. Orbis is doing its utmost to prevent such tragedies from happening by consolidating ophthalmic medical news and patient stories from both Hong Kong and around the world across Orbis's social media platforms. All parents and teachers are welcome to follow us!
Orbis's Support to on-Campus Fundraising Assistance
Orbis respectfully urges all local schools to nurture good eyecare habits amongst the next generation of Hongkongers! Should your teachers wish to organize any kind of eyecare fundraising activity, we’ll be delighted to provide you with assistance covering everything from teaching materials to collecting donations! What better way to ensure your pupils fulfill their social responsibilities than helping them to bring hope in sight for visually impaired people everywhere!
