Vision loss always leads to disability, and many of us hope it won’t happen to us but take any action to prevent it.

As of today, breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer worldwide, affecting both women and men, although it occurs significantly less frequently in men.

Let’s take Canadian statistics as an example. Here are some figures:

A study published back in 2012 by the Conference Board of Canada revealed that smoking is the cause of over 45,000 deaths in Canada each year, accounting for almost 1 in 5 (18.4%) of all deaths in the country.
