This time , they offered a free clinic to 2149 patients especially parents, grandparents , older brothers and sisters of the students of Fe y Alegria no 25 College which we saw in September 2009. The group was made up of 6 optometrists, optometry students from Montreal and Waterloo as well as other volunteers. Thanks to their work, many persons were able to obtain a free eye exam and glasses which gave them a clearer vision once more. Thanks to everyone who made this possible!!! |

We provided over 2658 pair of glasses during the 5 days of clinic and referred approximately 161 patients who needed to have cataract surgery. We witnessed many cases of blindness, either unilateral or bilateral; due to trauma, glaucoma, diseases, cataracts or unknown causes. Along with the glasses, we provided many donated bottles of drops including anti-allergy drops, artificial tears and glaucoma drops. We worked alongside the local clinicians and helped to educate them on how to use the drops and how to treat certain diseases.* REPORT |
