Hodeida:Grameen Yemen Foundation is set to launch its 31st free eye surgery camp next Sunday in the Al-Zuhrah district of Hodeida province. This initiative aims to provide essential eye care services to those in need.
According to Yemen News Agency, the five-day camp is organized in coordination with the Ministry of Health and Environment and its local office. It plans to perform 400 surgeries, including cataract removal and lens implantation, alongside offering examinations and medications.
