On March 19th, Eye Care Equality hosted its fifth event at Kisaan Steels in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, where we extended our compassionate services to 232 blue-collar workers.
At this uplifting event, our team of doctors and volunteers held free eye check-up camps at Kisaan Steels, diagnosing previously unnoticed vision issues. This was a key step toward empowering the labor force, ensuring they could work safely and efficiently. The day was filled with smiles, gratitude and improved vision, giving these individuals a brighter, more secure future
We tested 232 blue-collar workers and found out that 94.83% needed eye care services. A total of 109 workers needed reading glasses which were provided for free and 51 workers were prescribed distance glasses. We also provided 60 eye drops for workers who complained about redness or itchiness in their eyes.
We are truly grateful to our donors! It would not have been possible without your support
Eye Care Equality remains committed to making a tangible difference in the lives of daily wage laborers, one event at a time.
