Abstract:

Vision is essential to a human’s daily life. Learning some eye conditions can help individuals take care of their eyes and prevent developing severe eye problems. The purpose of this study is to increase the awareness level of Filipinos on visual impairments. The researcher also aimed to produce engaging educational materials in the form of infographic posters and motion graphics video which are published on a website. To determine the effectiveness, a sample of 15 respondents aged between 13 years old to 60 years old were gathered to assess multimedia outputs and marketing materials. Results showed that all outputs produced by the researcher were effective and outstanding. The three multimedia outputs were informative and visually appealing. The two marketing materials were interesting for participants. To conclude, the study has acquired a positive impact among target participants.
