Did Universal Charity Prevail, Earth would be a heaven and hell a fable
As usual we segregated the people into two groups, the youth and the aged, this makes the whole screening process a whole lot easier the youth most often would present with less pathologies and more refractive errors so you know where you are headed towards. The aged requires a more thorough and comprehensive examination, missing anything with them could be damaging.
As it is with orthodox churches we had the aged dominating the greater population of the church and hence more of them coming in to participate in the program. It was quite fun and exciting getting to know new people and leaving our circumscribe.
We did not only give education and visual health management but also learnt a whole lot more and got the chance to practice and improve our skills. I guess giving out does indeed comes back or better still we can say what goes around comes around?
Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement
What is @bettervision about?
@bettervision is is a project initiated by @nattybongo and friends to give back to the society the knowledge and skill acquired through the Optometric Studies in Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Ghana.It is an outreach system where we visit the less privileged communities to offer free eye screening services and education to the people within the community
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
To reduce or prevent vision loss through diseases such as glaucoma, cataract and refractive errors.
To enlighten the majority of the Ghanaian population about the importance of proper visual care.
To conscientize people on the need for regular eye checks
To get more people to have their wards screened within the Critical periods of a Child’s Vision Development; thus from ages 3 to till about 10 years.
To help the blind and people with low vision live a better life within the society through education of the general public to stop stigmatization.
