The glasses of NZOZ "Twój Lekarz" patients helped children from Nairobi. More than a thousand people gained a new perspective on life.

Our ophthalmologist, Dr. Barbara Mista, together with optometrists from the Leczymy z Misją Association, examined 1,220 people from Korogocho, Kenya, in July this year. All of them also received new glasses. This was possible, among others, thanks to the patients of the NZOZ "Twój Lekarz", who responded to our appeal and got involved in collecting glasses.

I am impressed because the glasses were brought to all our facilities. I am very happy that our patients and employees showed great heart and supported us in this collection. We collected full boxes of glasses for patients from Africa – says Aleksandra Chlebik-Olender, co-founder of the network of neighbourhood medical facilities NZOZ “Twój Lekarz”.

As a thank you to our patients, Dr. Barbara Mista and optometrists from the Leczymy z Misją Association sent them from Nairobi.
