Green Ribbon Pins Initiative – World Glaucoma Week
As part of World Glaucoma Week, patients, healthcare providers, Quito Metro administrative staff, professionals in the tourism industry, and officials from the Municipality of Quito are encouraged to wear the green ribbon pin to demonstrate their support and commitment to this global awareness initiative.
This symbolic gesture serves as a powerful visual statement, reinforcing the importance of glaucoma awareness, early detection, and prevention. By engaging diverse sectors of society, we aim to amplify the message and encourage broader public participation in the fight against preventable blindness.
The widespread adoption of the green ribbon pin across various industries highlights the collective commitment of Quito’s community to raising awareness about glaucoma and supporting initiatives that promote eye health.
