 The COVID-19 virus has been understood to cause eye-related complications including the formation of nodules in the macular region, cranial nerve palsy, retinal vein occlusion and AMD (Age-related Macular Degeneration)

Thailand completed the period for completing WHO launched Vision 2020 program. The program had 3 key targets including control of diseases that affect eye health, development of human resources and provision of appropriate technology and infrastructure

The King and Queen of Thailand sent a flight full of oxygen supplies & healthcare aid for COVID-19 patients to India. The cargo included 300 oxygen tanks, 200 oximeters and 70 oxygen generators among other medical equipment and humanitarian supplies.

Increase in Cataract Surgery Rate: Thailand’s state-sponsored Universal Health Coverage Scheme has improved the Cataract surgery rate in the country, with statistics of untreated cataract improving for the better. The scheme has also played a role in reducing the contribution of cataract towards blindness in Thailand.

Mobile Ophthalmology vans equipped with diagnostic equipment and surgical facilities have been at the forefront of democratizing eye care in Thailand, with BanPheo Hospital leading the way.
