After completing eye camp for children at Janathe Pada, Taluka Vikramgadh, Thane, we realised the need of doing the same check-up for adults of Janathe Pada and villages nearby. This camp was arranged on 2nd March 2013.
This camp covered 4-5 villages in the nearby region. We had roughly 150 patient registered for the camp. The camp had a primary objective of eye check-up for optometry and identification of patients for cataract to be operated in two weeks time.
We examined 120 patients as outpatients in the camp.
Findings from the camp | Female | Male | Grand Total |
Patients requiring spectacles | 37 | 36 | 73 |
Patients with cataract | 4 | 2 | 6 |
Patients to be further referred to senior optholmologist | 9 | 11 | 20 |
