After completing all field preparations — installing examination equipment in the clinics and examining patients —

the consultants and specialists of the ophthalmology caravan, which came to Ibn Sina Hospital as part of the national program to bring treatment home, began operating a short while ago together with the hospital's Ophthalmology Department team, headed by Dr. Rabia Al-Barq.

Dr. Rabia said the team aimed to perform six operations this evening, and would continue tomorrow, Thursday, with operations for all patients on the waiting list.

Our thanks, appreciation and respect to all the consultants, specialists, doctors and allied health staff working to ease patients' pain.
