Eye project for seniors may be extended
A community eye-screening project that has helped around 1,800 needy elderly residents will likely be extended when it ends this year.
The Mobile Eye Clinic (MEC), a project by both the Singapore Society of Ophthalmology and Standard Chartered bank, has been providing free eye check-ups for elderly folk above the age of 65 since 2014.
The eighth mobile clinic, was held yesterday at the SilverACE Senior Activity Centre in Lengkok Bahru, where about 200 residents received free eye checks.
