| Eyes are one of the most important treasures in our life.
To see the beauty of this world and experience our physical
surroundings is a great blessing. Unfortunately millions of
people wake up everyday never to see the light of the day.
Many live in darkness simply because they have no money to
correct their eyesight or cannot afford to pay for the eye
treatment. Another reason is that doctors in poor countries
lack proper equipment to treat the patients through eye examination
and operations.
Understanding the importance of the eyesight, we have in
the past sponsored eye camps and cataract operations. We
also have helped with much needed valuable eye equipments.
This time we were able to donate more valuable eye equipment
to the Lions eye clinic in Nairobi, Kenya. This equipment
included a slit lamp, a manual keratometer, and a blood
pressure monitor. The Lion’s eye clinic in Nairobi
treats thousands of patients every year through procedures
that include cataract operations. We have been working with
them for a long time. The Lions eye center is efficiently
run and is an active and busy place. We are so happy to
help them to continue their services.
