Our eighth eye camp was held on March 27, 2024 at Pirganj Pilot High School in Pirganj Upazila of Thakurgaon District. Before that, an awareness program on prevention of blindness and vision services was celebrated on 25th March in the upazila town through community meeting, miking and distribution of leaflets. In the eye camp, 112 patients were examined for blindness and visual impairment, provided with necessary prescriptions and counselling.

Among the eye camp attendees 39 patients were given free spectacles and 11 patients were nominated for free cataract surgery. On March 28, our service partner, Majeda Eye Hospital of Birol Upazila, Dinajpur District, underwent cataract surgery on those patients. They are counseled about post-operative care and follow-up before being discharged from the hospital.

Your support in the fight against blindness is our path.
