In October 2023, the LALJI FOUNDATION made a positive impact on the Geita community by sponsoring an eye health camp at Geita Regional Hospital. Conducted from October 23 to October 26, this initiative provided crucial eye care services, including screenings, treatments, and cataract surgeries, to individuals in need. The event was organized in collaboration with Tanzania Outreach Foundation and Majey Smart Vision.
Here is what we achieved through this Eye Health Camp:
- Screened 1,578 patients for eye conditions, identifying issues and providing necessary treatment.
- Performed 100 cataract surgeries, restoring vision for those with impaired eyesight.
- Provided awareness on eye care and protection, empowering patients to safeguard their vision.
The LALJI FOUNDATION, along with Geita Regional Hospital, will continue to monitor and evaluate the program to ensure lasting impact and plans to extend similar support to other regions in Tanzania.
