Eye/Vision
Examinations
18 November 2007
(Pamunugama)
10 January 2008 (Wattegama)
 We
are extremely grateful to a wonderful charitable organization called
IRIS Asia
(International Resources for the Improvement of Sight) for providing
free-of-charge, professional eye examinations to all of our Pamunugama and
Wattegama children. Upon learning of our needs, IRIS Asia Sri Lanka coordinator Roger Biggs made
an immediate personal effort to include our homes in IRIS Asia's busy
schedule in Sri Lanka. The exams were carried out with the greatest
of care by the highly professional staff of Rajapakse Opticians in Sri
Lanka, who
traveled the long distances to the remote homes. A number of vision
issues were discovered amongst our children, and these too have been
promptly addressed by IRIS Asia, including new spectacles provided free of
charge, and professional medical care. Besides the obvious health
benefit to these children, IRIS Asia has most certainly contributed to
their educational performance as well. From coordinating the exams,
to providing the most professional staff and quality spectacles and care
at no cost, to following up with genuine interest in the welfare of our
children, we can't thank Roger and IRIS Asia enough!
