The King Salman Center for Relief and Humanitarian Aid implemented the Noor Saudi Volunteer Project to combat blindness and diseases at the government hospital in the Walsamulla area in the Southern Province of Sri Lanka on Monday (Nov 04).
According to the Saudi Embassy in Sri Lanka, the Volunteer Project will be conducted from 04-09 November at the hospital.
This project includes performing surgeries for thousands of cases and providing them with medical services and providing them with medicines, spectacles and lenses in addition to providing them with health awareness.
On Tuesday (Nov 05), patients were treated to 4500 medical examinations, distribution of 600 glasses, and 115 surgeries.
Prior to launching the volunteer project in the Southern Province, it was conducted in the Kattankudy area in the Eastern Province of Sri Lanka in May this year.
The project is being launched based on the distinguished relations between Saudi Arabia and Sri Lanka, and the keenness of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to alleviate the suffering of countries around the world.
Accordingly, the Noor Saudi Volunteer Project includes performing surgical operations on thousands of cases, providing them with medical services, medicines, spectacles and lenses, in addition to providing them with health awareness.
This project is an extension of the projects organized by the King Salman Center for Relief and Humanitarian Aid in all countries, including Sri Lanka. (Islandnews)
