As many as 1700 people, both from Army and civilians, attended the camps. The Aloka Vision Programme by ZEISS is a social initiative focused on providing quality vision care to semi-urban, rural, and remote regions in India and SAARC countries. The camps, extended for both army professionals and civilians, emphasised the importance of eye health.
Speaking about the initiative, head of the programme Dr. Premjeeth Moodbidri said, "We are honoured to organize the eye testing camps and extend our gratitude to the army professionals for their continued support in planning and conducting the camp." The Aloka Vision Programme by ZEISS has consistently endeavoured to serve communities in need. We believe that every individual, regardless of their geographical location, profession, or financial circumstances, deserves access to quality vision care, he said. By providing comprehensive eye examinations and necessary support, we hope to make a meaningful impact on the lives of the people we serve, Dr. Moodbidri added. The camps brought together a team of experienced ophthalmologists, optometrists, and volunteers from ZEISS, who worked tirelessly to provide comprehensive eye examinations and detect vision-related issues, besides offering appropriate solutions to the attendees, a communique informed here on Friday.
