FOR WHOM
During our ophthalmological trips, we help military personnel who cannot leave their posts in the front-line areas for long periods to visit a medical center for eye diagnostics, receive treatment recommendations, necessary medications, or glasses.
We also provide eye diagnostics for the local population who are unable to travel for examinations.
WHAT IS #МОС
This is free mobile ophthalmological care - assistance for military and civilians in the format of regular field missions to frontline territories. Professional doctors of the ophthalmological medical centers "New Vision" and "Exmer" carry out examinations of patients while staying in regions where there is a problem with access to quality medicine
Each ophthalmology mission costs approximately 100,000 UAH. This includes expenses for:
- fuel,
- rental of transportation to carry the team and 20 boxes of equipment, consumables, a generator, and other necessary items,
- purchase of consumables (needed for patient examinations),
- purchase of medications and glasses that we provide on-site,
- payment for the work of doctors, a driver, and an operator,
- meals and accommodation, as it's not always possible to arrange these for free.
MOC`s MISSION
Provide the highest possible professional assistance where it is needed, preserve vision, comfort of life, and the quality of task performance
