Powerful Ads About Quitting Smoking

"Eye" Television Ad Description

The ad shows a man sitting in a car, lighting a cigarette. The camera zooms in, showing the smoke entering his body. The scene shifts to an eye, then zooms in to show blood vessels, and damage to a blood vessel inside the eye. The scene returns to the man in the car.


Voiceover:

Every cigarette is doing you damage.

Chemicals from tobacco smoke get into your blood stream and can damage the delicate blood vessels inside your eyes.

We now know that smoking is a major cause of irreversible blindness.

Every cigarette is doing you damage.
