COB’s Christian Mission Hospital, Rajshahi (CMHR) intensifies eye check-up efforts in communities

Following the end of the COVID-19 lockdown a few months ago, the Christian Mission Hospital, Rajshahi (CMHR) operated by the Church of Bangladesh (COB) has seen more patients, and increased their field efforts. Field eye camps are now frequently being organised under CMHR in selected communities.

For example, 3,000 children in Tanore Upazila under Rajshahi district have been screened during the health check-up field camps held in conjunction with Food for Hungry Association (FHA). These eye camps are the bridge between communities to hospital referrals, such as the cataract services of CMHR Eye Department.
