Today, February 28th, marks Rare Eye Disease Day. It is a chance to bring awareness to the variety of conditions that can and do impact people’s sight. However, it’s not so rare to have problems with your eyes. Tomorrow begins Save Your Vision Month.

Start now, especially if you are young, to love your eyes, take care of them, and pay attention to visual indicators of something that might be going awry. You may be able to prevent eye problems in the future.
