Cataracts in 180 people in one ward

 

(Nawalpur)

In Madhyabindu Municipality 15, Prasauni, East Nawalparasi, 118 patients with cataract have been found in one ward. About 22 percent of those who came to the free eye examination camp organized by the Rotary Club of Kawasoti had cataracts. 




Ophthalmologist Pradeep Bhattarai said that 108 of the 498 people who came to the camp, which was run by the Rotary Club of Kawasoti with the support of Madhyabindu Municipality, were found to have cataracts.



As the only treatment for cataract disease 


is surgery, the number of patients with cataracts has increased due to the reluctance of people to have their eyes examined in rural areas. Rotary Club of Kawasoti has been conducting free eye camps in rural areas. Harihar Adhikari, President of Rotary Club of Kawasoti, said that free surgery will be given to patients who are found to have cataracts. A free surgery camp will be organized on 11th, 12th and 13th of Mansir for the patients of cataracts found now.
