Happy Boxing Day!
I had the privilege of delivering a health sensitization talk on Apollo (Adenoviral Conjunctivitis) on NTA Port Harcourt, aimed at educating the public on how to stay safe during the festive season and beyond.
A big thank you to NTA Port Harcourt for the warm reception and for providing a platform to promote community eye health. Together, we can prevent the spread of Apollo and protect our vision.
Key Prevention Tips to Keep Your Eyes Safe:
- Wash your hands frequently with soap and clean water
- Avoid touching or rubbing your eyes
- Do not share towels, handkerchiefs, or eye makeup
- Use only clean water for face and eye care
Visit an eye care professional promptly if you notice redness, discharge, pain, or blurred vision
Apollo Alert:
Apollo is highly contagious. Early action and proper hygiene are crucial to prevent its spread.
Please watch, share, and help spread the message, healthy eyes matter.
