Three Eye Camps were held in the remote rural areas to select cataract patients. 75 cataract patients were detected. These patients were operated upon at our hospital at Gaibandha using latest technique of manual PHACO and providing an Intra Ocular Lens (I O L ) implant.
One patient named Zahid, after getting back his eye sight following cataract surgery, commented, "I am extremely grateful to Karmirhath hospital and the donors who financed my surgery for restoring my eye sight. I am now able to go back to my profession of tailoring and earn livelihood for my family."
We are amazed at the noble efforts of a small group of eighth-graders in a Los Angeles School who raised a good amount of money and donated at www.globalgiving.com/3595!!!
