Ophthalmic Aid to Eastern Europe (OAEE)

2022-12-19 14:33:40

As a consequence of the war in Ukraine, the need for ophthalmic medical supplies in Eastern Europe has never been greater. The charity OAEE aims to deliver donations to the Ophthalmology Department of Lviv Hospital and also to St. Spiridon Hospital in Iasi, Romania where displaced Ukrainian refugees are arriving. They are seeking donations of new or ‘used but usable’ ophthalmic equipment and any short-coded consumables. Surgical instruments, slit lamps, direct and indirect ophthalmoscopes and operating microscopes are particularly needed. If you have anything that may be of use please contact Mr Peter Cackett by email at pdcackett@hotmail.com . Thank you for any support that you can provide.
