A Journey of Compassion and Collaboration.
In the heart of August, The Vision Mission embarked on a poignant journey to Trilochan Netralaya (TN) in Odisha, marking the inaugural Singapore-Odisha Ophthalmology Meet 2022. Led by esteemed professionals including Prof Quah Boon Long, Dr. Jayant Iyer, Dr. Raghuraj Hegde, Dr. Chen Jianping, and Mr. Mohamed Farook, our team embarked on a weeklong endeavor.
Despite the lingering shadows of the COVID-19 pandemic, we were driven by a shared commitment to extend compassionate care and uphold the bonds of collaboration. Together, we ran clinics, conducted follow-ups on critical procedures, and forged enduring connections with the community.
