Letter from HOS to Hawaii Lions re: Lion's Visual Screening for Children

The Academy's Communication & Media Division developed a template news release:

Don't Lose Sight of Your Eye Health

for use by state ophthalmology societies. The template is part of the Academy's continuing effort with its EyeSmart Campaign to provide you with the tools to help disseminate important information about eye injuries, disease, and infection to the public and to raise the visibility of ophthalmology.

Please feel free to modify the release as appropriate, including the addition of quotes by your society's leadership as well as information about your particular state ophthalmology society.

In addition, the following articles are available:

If you have any questions about the above, contact John Gallagher, the Academy's Director of Public Relations.
