Glaucoma Awareness Walk on 13 March 2024

A silent walk by the staff of Sunetra Family Eye Care Centre on Wednesday, 13th March 2024 to raise awareness on glaucoma. Glaucoma is a potentially blinding eye disorder if not detected and/or treated timely. Also known as the “Silent Thief of Sight” primary glaucoma does not cause any symptoms in majority of cases. Routine eye check-up 30 years age onwards is the only possible way of preventing blindness from glaucoma.

Homage to Sri C K Somany

The staff and members of Sunetra Family Eye Care Centre (a unit of Calcutta Eye Research Foundation), deeply mourn the sad demise of Sri Chandra Kumar Somany who left us for heavenly abode on Wednesday, 17th May 2017. Sri C K Somany was not only a senior trustee of our foundation but also a proud well-wisher, a guide, a promoter of charitable services for the indigent, a stickler for perfection, a patriot at heart and a supporter of everything modern and up-to-date. It was because of his total belief in our work and generosity of financial support that Sunetra Family Eye Care Centre was able to reach enviable heights in delivery of state-of the-art eye care for all, irrespective of paying capacity of the patient. We share our condolences and sincerely pray for a peaceful abode of the noble soul.
