There will be a free CNIB eye-safety session June 25 at 9 am in the NRC lecture theatre. Presenter: Clarissa Harris LeBreton, Coordinator, Vision Health Promotion and Marketing Canadian National Institute for the Blind (CNIB), PE, NS, NB Every 12 minutes someone in Canada develops significant vision loss. The result of such a staggering statistic is significant costs to government, communities and businesses. And in 20 years from now, the number of Canadians with blindness or partial sign will grow by 100 percent. At CNIB, our focus is on diminishing those numbers by ensuring we play a fundamental role in eye safety and prevention. We know that 100 per cent of eye injuries are preventable. Who should attend: anyone who is exposed to eye hazards such as anyone who works in a lab or near chemicals or with particulate matter, Facilities Management employees, etc. Outline: The eye safety session will be delivered by a trained facilitator - Clarissa - who will provide the audience with a first-hand account about the realities associated with vision loss and the need to protect our eyes. CNIB has developed a highly visual presentation to show eye injuries resulting from a range of workplace and recreational situations. Please pre-register for this session with: Rylie Cole, rcole@upei.ca.
