Before the eye testing, there was an interaction between doctors and students, students asked their doubts and doctors clarified them. It was very interesting conversation between doctors and students.
**** High school girl students came up with doubt as can they use eyeliner or Kajal.
Whole school students’ eyes were tested, instructions given during eye testing were follow instructions carefully, look directly at the target, honestly.
Doctors followed the testing on the basis of
Visual acuity test: students were asked to read the letters from an eye chart to assess their visual acuity.
Refraction test: students were asked to look through a phoropter, which is a device that contains different lenses. This test helps to determine students perceptions.
Cover test: students asked to cover one eye and then the other while looking at the target. This test helps detect any eye alignment problems.
Abhyaas believe that healthy vision is essential for academic and personal growth. Abuse will continue to organize such camps to ensure that our students have access to the quality eye care.
