Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3 - Line 4a
SCREEN AND TREAT PEOPLE FOR RETINAL DISEASES IN UNDERSERVED AREAS AROUND THE WORLD, THROUGH OUTREACH AND VOLUNTEER PROGRAMS. CONSIDERING THE COVID SITUATION IN SOME OF THE AREAS WE WORK IN, WE CONTINUED TO AVOID SPECIALISTS FROM THE US AND OTHER COUNTRIES TO TRAVEL TO OUR LOCATIONS. INSTEAD, WE CONTINUED TO ORGANIZE AND ARRANGE FOR EYE CARE SPECIALISTS FROM LOCAL AREAS TO VOLUNTEER THEIR TIME AND PROVIDE EXPERTISE FOR FREE TO TRAVEL TO UNDERSERVED AREAS CLOSE TO WHERE THEY LIVE. THEY EVALUATE PATIENTS ON SITES WORKING WITH OUR PARTNER EYE CLINICS. THIS WORK IS IMPORTANT TO CREATE SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS IN THESE UNDERSERVED AREAS. WE REIMBURSE THEIR BASIC TRAVEL COSTS.
SCREEN AND TREAT PATIENTS WITH RETINAL AND OTHER OCULAR DISEASES IN ORANGE COUNTY, CA.
