D. D. Netra Seva Foundation regularly conducts 100% free eye camps in the rural areas for general eye checkups and cataract screening. Patients identified for surgeries are transported to the base hospital, D. D. Netra Seva Foundation, Naya Nohra. They are assessed in detail preoperatively by the doctors. They are provided with breakfast, lunch and dinner during their stay. They are provided with free neat and clean accommodation with separate male and female wards. After surgery, patients are examined next day before discharging them with free medications. Follow up is done after 7 days and after 1 month to ensure continuity of care.
We are currently running 4 vision centers in the periphery of Kota to ensure the access to eye care for the rural population. These centers are visited weekly by our trained ophthalmologist. We organize free eye camps once in a month in these centers. Apart from camps in rural areas, we have walk-in camp on every Tuesdays and Fridays in our base hospital, where people can come directly for free surgeries. On the discretion of our director, Dr. D. D. Verma, underprivileged patients who do not have bhamasa card or BPL card, are also given treatment free of cost or at discounted rates.
