Cataract Awareness Month 2014 – when actually is it or maybe was it?


Cataract Awareness Month

Cataract Awareness Month

Well better late than never ( or maybe too early!)

As you can see by some of the links Cataract Awareness Month kicks off in just two days time. (Or does it?)

As I mentioned before cataracts are a big issue for my family. Both my parents have had cataract operations as have two of my aunts.

I covered what to expect from a cataract operation in a previous post which you can check out here. It also gives an overview of of what a cataract actually is.

If you want to find out a bit more about Cataract Awareness Month itself then I can suggest you visit the Friends for Sight site.

Here you will notice something that rather confuses me. This page says the month is in June while Vision Texas give August as the month.

Which is correct? Does anyone care? More to the point does it matter?
