Over hundred students and adults were provided free consultation and many given corrective lenses. A few patients also underwent free surgeries to help restore vision.

YRC and Ilankhadir volunteers played an important role in organising the camp. The volunteers learned the value of extending a helping hand to society through the camp and took home the good feeling of being part of a project that served society.
