Sewa Sadan Eye Hospital organized a free Eye and Dental Check-up camp today at Gurdwara Tekri Sahib. The camp, aimed at providing essential health services to the local community, saw 108 patients receiving medical examinations. Among the attendees, 47 were male and 61 were female.
In the eye check-up camp, a wide range of conditions were diagnosed. 53 patients were found to have refraction errors, while 7 patients were diagnosed with cataracts. Additionally, 3 patients were identified with pterygium, a condition affecting the eye's conjunctiva. The camp also conducted Fundus examinations for 13 patients, which provided important insights into their eye health. During the check-up, 23 patients were found to have diabetes, and 16 others were diagnosed with high blood pressure. To support these patients, 91 people were given free eye drops to aid in their treatment.
In the dental check-up segment, 75 individuals were examined for dental diseases. Among them, 17 were advised to undergo root canal treatments, 20 were recommended for tooth extraction, and 38 patients were diagnosed with dental issues that required further treatment.
The camp was attended by prominent figures, including Mr. Paramveer Singh, the Chairperson of the Gurdwara Managing Committee, and Secretary Harvinder Singh. Also present were SSEH Managing Trustee A.C. Sadhwani, who expressed his support for the initiative.
Dr. Sanjiti Arya, the ophthalmologist at Sewa Sadan, Dr. Komal Daswani, the dentist, along with Dr. Roshni Gyanchandani, Optometrist Ajay Singh, and Priyal Tiwari, contributed to the success of the camp by providing expert services.
The camp also served as a reminder of the importance of regular health check-ups, especially for eye and dental care, which are often overlooked in underserved communities. The initiative by Sewa Sadan Eye Hospital reflects their commitment to improving community health and well-being.
The hospital has expressed interest in organizing more such camps in the future, providing continued support to local residents and ensuring that essential medical services reach all sections of the society.
