The VIIO Child Eye Care Project

In accordance to our vision statement “No one shall go blind for want of money or lack of care” we had identified 20 schools from different clusters under our child vision care programme. Starting from LKG up to 10 STD children’s’ are screened for eye ailments. In continuance of our services under this programme we have further screened 1520 children from 4 schools, 92 children found with refractive error have been supported with providing spectacles free of cost. Children who required dilated fundus examination were referred to base hospital. Some children required surgical management & were managed with surgical intervention for curable blindness. Some photographs of children who were managed surgically are attached.
