Next week we will all be gathering at Hosanna General Hospital for the annual High Volume Cataract Surgical Campaign. This will be our 6th campaign in partnership with the Himalayan Cataract Project and over 1200 patients have already been scheduled for surgery.

The photo above shows a crowd from one of the cataract screening events. People learn about the screening by 4x4 vehicles driving through rural villages and blasting an announcement. If interested in hearing what the announcement sounds like, click on the photo of the cars below.

Please follow us on Facebook and Instagram as we will be posting regular updates from the campaign.

Thank you for supporting WEEMA- without you, this work would not be possible.

Patients gather at a Hadyia Health Center to be screened for cataract surgery.
