Giving sight to the elderly, October 2016
A total of fifteen deserving patients have had their sight restored pro-bono through Ethekwini Hospital and Heart Centre together with resident Ophthalmologists Dr Kavitha Naidu and Dr Bhavna Jugadeo. Their sight was restored by removing the cataracts and replacing them with acrylic lens implants.
