Poor Cataract Patients
Millions of poor cataract patients living in the countryside of China cannot afford medical treatment. Many like this boy can only place their hope on the outside.
“The hospital eye-train always stops at the remote regions of China. Before the eye-train arrives, local branches of the China Disabled Persons’ Federation, the All-China Women's Federation and the Ministry of Health will help to bring patients around the area to the local support hospital for check-up. After the check-up, patients are sent back to their homes to wait for the arrival of “Lifeline Express”. When the eye-train arrives, patients will again be taken to the local support hospital for a final check-up and then taken to the eye-train for cataract-removal surgery. Patients often arrive 1 to 2 days in advance of the surgical operation.“
