Barsana is surrounded by a cluster of 120 villages. The villagers here are extremely poor and could barely afford one square meal a day. There are no medical facilities in this cluster. Due to their extreme poverty and lack of medical facilities they prefer to lead a life of blindness due to cataract. Bhaktivedanta Hospital takes lot of efforts to provide them modern and quality services. The Bhaktivedanta Hospital will conduct the next annual camp from 31 Jan - 19 Feb 2010. We now conduct monthly eye camps on first four days of each month to facilitate the need there. All the required equipments, medicines, lenses, surgical items, Operating microscopes etc are transported from Mumbai to Barsana. The team of volunteers from Bhaktivedanta Hospital and Share Your Care put their efforts together to build a fully equipped, modern and sterile operation theatre in the primary health center at Barsana.
