Sometimes, a child’s biggest barrier to learning isn't a lack of effort—it’s simply not being able to see the classroom board clearly.
The result: Poor concentration. Headaches and irritation. Lack of confidence. Social withdrawal. If in a village, it mostly also goes undetected.
Team OSAAT, along with ASG Eye Hospital and Terapanth Professional Forum CSR created this awareness in Mysore rural region schools.
Eye Screening Camps were held in 3 rural government schools, and we were able to share with the young ones why it's so important to take care of eyes.
For many of these young students, this was the very first time they had their vision tested. Needless to say, to them it looked like another science project!
They happily participated with good energy and were eager to know the results. Of the 613 students tested in 3 schools, over 50 of them needed spectacles.
They will be provided the same free of cost. Staff was also given free reading glasses. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our donors, we were able to bring crucial eye care directly to hundreds of children in OSAAT schools.
