Sareya gave birth to her daughter, Avanya, on May 17. Just six months later, Avanya was diagnosed with a rare form of childhood eye cancer, retinoblastoma. As an optometrist, Sareya was able to identify and diagnose the condition quickly, but what if she hadn't been an optometrist? Compelled by that question, Sareya has used her knowledge of visual perception to design clothing that attracts attention, creates conversation and spreads awareness about childhood eye cancer. As both an optometrist and a designer, Sareya carefully considers colour, contrast, refraction and reflection when selecting the beads for her collection to create the most impact.
