Globally, over two billion people suffer from vision impairment, according to the World Health Organisation. At least 1 billion of these cases could have been prevented or are yet to be addressed.

The case of young Michael Akpabi, a one-year-old victim of conjunctivitis, came to the attention of Stonebwoy's Livingstone Foundation, led by his wife.

Conjunctivitis, also known as pink eye, is an irritation or inflammation of the conjunctiva often caused by allergies or an infection.

The Livingstone Foundation came to the boy's aid. The charity organisation offered essential supplies and financial assistance to cover the one-year-old's medical bills.

Before-and-after videos of young Akpabi's condition impressed many fans.
