This resolution is a commemorative document from the Ohio House of Representatives recognizing World Sight Day on October 9, 2025, and highlighting the importance of eye health and vision care. The resolution emphasizes that more than half of all causes of blindness are preventable and frames vision disability as a critical human development issue that impacts all aspects of society. It notes that while the causes of blindness are often treatable, the number of Ohioans experiencing vision-related conditions continues to increase. The resolution aims to raise awareness about eye health, urging citizens to understand the risks and potential treatments for vision impairment. By observing World Sight Day, the Ohio House of Representatives seeks to educate individuals about vision health, promote accessibility to eye care, and support efforts to help more people maintain or improve their eyesight. The document also instructs the House Clerk to distribute authenticated copies of the resolution to Ohio's news media to help spread its message.
