Mst. Prem Kumar is a 14-year-old child who lives with his five siblings in the village of Jarmano in the Shahjahanpur district. He quit going to school because his teacher and classmates kept criticizing him for his poor academic performance, and his poor vision was the main reason for making this decision.
On 23rd August 2024, his household was part of a Peek Powered Community Eye Health (CEH) screening program and Ms. Anamika did his eye screening at the doorstep and found that both eye fail (OD- 6/36 and OS-6/24) and eye looked normal with a torchlight so she decided to refer him to Puwayan Vision Center for details examination. The vision technician (Ms. Shabiya) did refraction and found hyperopia of 3 diopters in both eyes.
On 14.11.2024, Prem got his glasses and achieved 6/6 in both eyes and after getting his distance correction he was very happy to see the clear his surroundings, he expressed his gratitude to the Peek-Vision Foundation and Dr. Shroff’s Charity Eye Hospital.
