This year, we're inviting photographers to explore five categories — from the everyday magic of clear vision and children's eye health to eye health at work, health for all, and making the world see the value of vision.
Whether you capture a powerful story, a joyful moment, or a glimpse of the difference good vision makes, we want to see it. Get your cameras clicking and submit your entry.
Competition closes: November 18
Winners announced: December 10
