The objective of the exercise according to Hon. Kalambaina is to address eye health-related problems of the rural people; hence many of them have poor eye health-seeking behavior that stems from inadequate knowledge of eye diseases and harmful cultural beliefs.
He further said at the implementation of the program he would engage the services of health officers to conduct medical check-ups, eye surgery, and provision of eyeglasses for both men and women.
He urged people to make use of the opportunity and make themselves available to health officers and thanked citizens of the two local government areas for their cooperation and support which led to the success of his tenure.
