As part of its ongoing Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives, St. Luke’s Hospital recently organized an Eye Clinic Outreach Program aimed at improving access to eye care and preventing avoidable vision problems within the community.

The outreach program was designed to provide free eye examinations, vision screenings, and professional medical advice to individuals experiencing eye conditions such as cataracts, glaucoma, refractive errors, and other vision challenges. Many community members often delay seeking eye care due to limited access or lack of awareness, leading to worsening vision over time. This initiative sought to bring expert ophthalmic care closer to the people.

Services Offered During the Eye Clinic Outreach

• Free eye examinations and vision screenings

• Assessment of cataracts, glaucoma, and other common eye conditions

• Prescription glasses for patients in need

• Medical advice on eye health, hygiene, and preventive care

• Referrals for advanced treatment at St. Luke’s Hospital

The program was led by experienced ophthalmologists, supported by nurses and clinical staff from St. Luke’s Hospital. Patients received individualized guidance on managing their eye health and preventive practices to protect their vision.

Beyond clinical services, the medical team engaged the community through eye health education sessions, emphasizing the importance of regular eye check-ups and early detection of vision problems. These interactions helped empower patients to take an active role in their eye health.

St. Luke’s Hospital remains committed to accessible, high-quality, and compassionate vision care through community outreach programs. Such initiatives reflect the hospital’s dedication to improving health outcomes and supporting the well-being of the communities it serves.
