“Eyes are the lamps for the body…Better Eyes…. Better Life.”
For any society, its elderly population is a source of great wisdom and pride. As far as the eye health of the seniors is concerned, it is vital to encourage healthy lifestyles that promote eye health in the long term. It is also essential that we ensure that older people have good access to eye care services. For most eye diseases like cataract, Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) and glaucoma are more common in the elderly. Comorbidities like diabetes, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease increase the risk of age-related eye diseases. Poor vision can result in restricted mobility at a time of life when staying active is crucial to maintain health and quality of life. Considering this The NSS Unit of The Bhawanipur Education Society College organised a free eye check camp “Ikshana2021” at Janma Bhumi Briddhabas, Dakshin Barasat , Joynagar I Block , Pin 743372 in collaboration with Dakshin Barasat Eye Foundation.

The NSS team of The BESC visited the venue on August 23, 2021 to inspect and to make all the required arrangements for the camp. They visited the Dakshin Barasat Eye Foundation Hospital as well to check the infrastructure and facilities available for the patients.
On August 28, 2021 5students representing NSS and 4 students representing NCC and 3 Faculty Members visited Janmabhumi Briddhabas and initiated the free eye check up camp. The volunteers actively did queue management, assisted the doctors and the beneficiaries to run the camp smoothly. Dakshin Barasat Eye Foundation provided Medical, Para Medicals, Sister & Camp Co-ordinator etc. to conduct the camp. Along with old age home boarders, local people got their eye check up done.
Summary of the event:
Total Check-up done: 80
