Today we spent the entire day in Colonia San Miguel in Tegucigalpa at a small church. We saw about 76 people in the eye clinic and found 8 who had cataracts. Those eight will receive surgeries next month for free. They only have to pay for their bandages and medicines which all together runs about $25. We gave away 42 pairs of reading glasses and some eye drops to those in need. Thanks to Clinica Zoe of Vida Abundante Church and thanks to Victor Montoya.

These are just some of the people who were checked and given new reading glasses today in Colonia Habitat in the Valle de Amarateca. We saw a total of 85 patients, gave away 51 pairs of eyeglasses and scheduled 11 cataract surgeries. It was a busy but rewarding day!

Today we saw 107 patients and performed eye exams on all of them.
Young and old alike waited for hours but we were able to see them all.

Long lines but happy people.
