| Project Information: |
The Eye Care Programme of the Evangelical Church of Guinea Bissau (Igreja Evangelica da Guine Bissau) is based out of the capital city of Bissau. The project is trying to rebuild its activities in two rural areas and the capital of this very impoverished country. Two national ophthalmologists were trained in the Anglophone Diploma of Ophthalmology with the West Africa College of Surgeons. A small eye hospital has been completed in the capital of Bissau to be used as their base. Together with the government ophthalmologist, the project is working toward a National Prevention of Blindness Programme for this country of over 1.3 million people. |
