Sai Life Sciences Sustainability Report 2020

109 We have set up Primary Vision Centers in Hyderabad and Vijayawada. The Sai LVPEI Vision Center in Shamirpet, is a permanent free walk-in eye care facility that offers primary screening and diagnosis to the community. A second center offering similar services has been set up in Vijayawada. The two vision care centers have conducted more than 5000 screenings since 2019, free of cost for community members. We plan to have additional centers set up that can offer more screening programs to communities. Even though our current SDG goal is to provide primary health screening, we intend to provide more holistic care and monitoring for individuals to support prevention, surgical care, and rehabilitation. Sai LVPEI Vision Centers 2944 Patients screened 997 Spectacles prescribed 248 Spectacles dispensed 251 Referred to higher ophthalmic care In addition to the LVPEI Vision centers, we also conduct monthly mobile health camps, partnering with Care Foundation. These health camps offer Physician consultation and basic diagnostic services. In the reporting period 1500+ screenings were conducted by these health camps. Just as with the Vision care centers, we hope to scale up our programs to focus more on preventive care, facilitate surgical care and support and continuous monitoring programs for communities in need. There are several other standalone programs that we conduct in the area of healthcare, such as Blood Donation drives in Pune and Bidar. We also supported the State Government in the fight against COVID-19 in the form of monetary support as well as donation of sanitizers. Mobile health camps
