The Mobile Eye Team concept was something that we tried in Ghana instead of the large mass screening for eye patients. The Minister of Health was very encouraged to know that this was what we were going to do here. The team goes to 4 advertised sites during the week and do screening for surgeries for the ship, eye health education and diagnosis for other eye diseases. At this site at the Duport Road Clinic, we normally see around 400 patients a day – in the picture I am watching Bob Hicks doing an exam.
