(^/ZjL^^K:y^ Proclamation 3965 SAVE YOUR VISION WEEK, 1970 February 23, 1970

By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation

Sight is one of man's greatest gifts. The preservation of that gift is one of his greatest challenges. Modern research has developed the technology for preventing nearly one-half of all new cases of blindness in this country. Cataracts that cruelly deprive older people of their sight can now be corrected surgically. Regular examinations can detect visual disorders, especially among school children who need good sight in order to learn. In the case of disorders such as glaucoma—which can rob a person of much of his sight before he is aware that a problem exists—early detection is essential if treatment is to be effective.
