About 200 people at Obosomoase in the Eastern Region on Mon­day received free eye screening organised by Symbol of Hope International (SOHi), a non-profit organisation, aimed at enhancing the quality of life of children and families.

The event, which marked the opening of eye screening service for the communities in the East­ern Region, was aimed to provide quality eye care services to chil­dren and adults in the community.

The exercise was well-received by the community, with many residents taking advantage of the opportunity to have their eyes checked and receive treatment.

The programme coincided with the foundation's two-year anniversary celebration and on the side-line was a party with the chil­dren in the community, as well as donation of assorted items includ­ing clothes, bags, and sandals.
