20-20-20 rule:

20-20-20eyecaretips

 Take breaks and follow the 20-20-20 rule One of the simplest ways to protect your eyes from excessive screen time is to take frequent breaks. A good way to ensure that you’re getting adequate breaks is to follow the 20-20-20 rule, which means taking a 20-second break every 20 minutes to look at something 20 feet away. This gives your eyes a chance to relax and prevents eye strain. Additionally, you can also close your eyes for a few seconds or blink rapidly to moisturise them.

The total matching donation cap for the corporate matching is HKD 700,000. Details of the donation matching are as follows: For monthly donations, the corporate matching will multiply the amount by 6 as the donation amount.

The Timbang family is unusual.

Due to a rare genetic condition, 43 members across three generations in the Timbang family suffered from a disease that causes cataracts.

Although cataracts can be easily treated with a 15-minute surgery performed by a highly trained doctor, a lack of awareness about treatment options, together with the high cost of eye health services, meant that Timbang children typically dropped out of school before reaching Year 6 .

Your donation of HKD150 can help restore sight to up to a patient living in remote areas.

The operation was successful. “When I was writing it wasn’t clear and I couldn’t read books properly. Now I can study much better because my eye was operated on.

I’m so happy because I can see better," said Marlone. “I could see the pimples on my mum’s face,” the cheeky 10-year-old jokes. “That’s really the first thing I saw really clearly!”
