Jaykaypur, November 4: The Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) wing of JK Paper Mills, in collaboration with the LV Prasad Eye Institute (LVPEI), Pithamahal, conducted a free community eye screening camp today at Kumutipentha. A total of 42 local residents received thorough clinical eye evaluations during the outreach initiative.

Patients diagnosed with cataracts will undergo surgery at the LV Prasad Eye Institute, Pithamahal, once preliminary medical fitness clearances are secured. Customized corrective spectacles will also be distributed to all individuals diagnosed with refractive errors during a follow-up drive. Clinical examinations were carried out by Vision Technician Rajakumari Kaushalya of LVPEI. The camp proceedings and logistics were coordinated by Harihar Khamari, Deputy Manager (CSR), JK Paper Mills.
