Surgeon, Dr Malaravan, attached to Jaffna Teaching Hospital, carried out surgeries to nearly 102 patients. The local eye doctor asked us to convey the gratitude of the local people to the donors and organisers.\u00a0Doctors from Vanni and Vision 2020 have informed Assist RR that there are thousands of needy patients in the North and East, who are still on their waiting lists and would benefit from these surgery camps because many can&#8217;t afford to pay for the lens and consumables needed for the surgery. Surgeon, Dr Malaravan has volunteered to perform surgery camps every month in the North. Assist RR will endeavour to find sponsors and support this on going project. Assist RR and people of Mullaithivu are indebted to Dr Malaravan for his selfless service to the vulnerable and needy patients in the North.\u00a0Assist RR also wish to express its gratitude to\u00a0the devotees of London Ealing Amman temple\u00a0for their financial support for this camp. Finally, we would like to thank Vision 2020, in particular Dr Asela Abeydeera, for their continued support in organising surgery camps in the East and North of Sri Lanka.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/assistrr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/29.jpg\">\u00a0<\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/assistrr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"3\" src=\"http:\/\/assistrr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/3-300x225.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/assistrr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/15.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"15\" src=\"http:\/\/assistrr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/15-300x225.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/assistrr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/13.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"13\" src=\"http:\/\/assistrr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/13-300x225.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/assistrr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/29.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"29\" src=\"http:\/\/assistrr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/29-300x225.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are happy to inform that yet another cataract surgery camp, sponsored by London Shri Kanagathurkkai Amman Temple (Ealing Amman Temple) by raising funds from\u00a0the devotees of\u00a0the temple\u00a0and organised by Assist RR, was successfully\u00a0completed on Sunday, 16\/11\/14 in Mullaithivu.
