Improving vision on a global scale requires strategic prevention, equitable access, and community-based intervention. Global eye health and preventive ophthalmology focuses on addressing disparities in vision care across underserved populations. Leading causes of preventable blindness—such as uncorrected refractive errors, cataracts, and diabetic retinopathy—can be managed effectively with low-cost screening and treatment programs. Mobile eye clinics, teleophthalmology, and task-shifting models have expanded outreach to remote areas. Public health initiatives emphasize early childhood screening, vaccination against measles and rubella, and education on hygiene practices to combat trachoma. International collaborations between governments, NGOs, and professional bodies are crucial for sustainable eye care infrastructure. Integrating eye health into primary care systems is key to long-term success. Data-driven approaches, policy advocacy, and workforce training are transforming how vision care is delivered across borders.
