During the world Glaucoma week (6th -12th march 2011). We at Amritsar eye clinic invited our old glaucoma patients along with their family members for a free eye check-up and counselling.During this entire week (6th – 12th march 2011) we examined a total of 150 patients. Several cases were diagnosed and registered. Glaucoma patients were counselled at our centre regarding the use of medication and need for regular follow up. Free medications were provided along with the literature of glaucoma.

The patients were provided the facility of glaucoma tests (Perimetry, OCT, RNFL) at half the rates. Laser and surgeries were also done for Glaucoma patients at reduced rates. It is just a small effort to reduce glaucoma related blindness within the society.
