The World Health Organisation (WHO) launched the ‘Global SPECS 2030’ initiative with the aim of making eyecare services accessible and affordable for everyone by the year 2030. The initiative focuses on addressing refractive errors such as myopia and hyperopia, which impact millions globally. It brings together a network of stakeholders committed to improving public health through coordinated advocacy, policy efforts, and collaborative actions. This initiative is part of WHO's broader vision to eliminate avoidable vision impairment and integrate eye health into universal health coverage frameworks, ensuring eye care becomes a fundamental part of global health strategies.
