Our mission group provides comprehensive on site diagnosis, surgical and medical treatment of eye diseases. The distribution of corrective glasses for those in need is also an essential part of the program. Physicians, nurses and trained eye screening volunteers are our most valued resources. The superior knowledge and skill of this broad-based team and their compassionate concern for each patient’s welfare is the basis of the Volunteer Health Program.
