Adam Brown is a social media star from Pickering who has used his platform to raise awareness for the blind and visually impaired community.
Adam has been a staunch supporter of those who suffer from retinitis pigmentosa and other degenerative eye illnesses.
He fought hard for the Ontario government to fund a life-changing gene therapy called Luxturna, and his efforts have paid off as he will be the first person in Ontario to receive this sight-saving treatment, which could potentially prevent him from going fully blind.
Adam’s advocacy on social media has earned him a large following, with hundreds of thousands of views on TikTok and Instagram. His work has raised much-needed awareness of the difficulties that those with visual impairments confront. We can’t wait to observe how this treatment will improve his quality of life.
Congratulations, Adam, on this well-deserved recognition and achievement!
Adam’s story is a remarkable example of how one individual can have a significant impact by using social media as a potent instrument for enacting change.
