Eye camp

Dr. Sandeep Anand is here performing eye surgery. He hopes to come intermittently to provide this service. Mr. Ram was a labourer from UP who came here to work in the apple orchards. Unfortunately he was nearly blind with bilateral cataract. It is a bit difficult to conceive of how one can work in an orchard when one is nearly blind. However, he was operated on one eye last time and today he undergoes another surgery on the other eye to restore his vision. We were able to give him concession and his orchard owner came forward to help. Thanks every one, thanks Dr. Sandeep.
