Several August observances focus on the health and problems of the eye, including Cataract Awareness Month, Children's Vision and Learning Month and Eye Exam Month. Vision may be the most important of our senses, and students should learn about how to maintain healthy vision or correct imperfect vision. Today, science is providing many cures that were unknown only a decade ago. Students will want to learn about these modern miracles that support healthy eyes and great vision. Activity: Assign students to find information on such topics as cataracts, lasik surgery, contact lenses, color blindness, super sight, strabismus and other eye related topics. Students can share their research with other students by creating two-minute oral reports on their assigned subtopics.
