I had blurred vision for many months but didn't know where to go or how to afford treatment. The eye camp came to our village, and they checked my eyes for free. They gave me glasses and sent me for a cataract surgery. Now I can see clearly again.

GENERAL PUBLIC
Many people came to the camp without knowing they had eye problems. We helped them feel comfortable, guided them during checkups, and explained things in simple words. It felt good to be part of something that truly helped our community. Restoring someone's sight feels like giving them a new life.
