Cosmo "Vision on Wheels" will be a Mobile Eye Clinic customized & designed with Force
Motors, Traveler Vehicle. It will be a state-of-the-art mobile eye clinic, having all amenities
and latest medical equipment, appropriate supplies of medicines & other requisites to
conduct tests & on-board procedures, a comfortable and soothing interior environment for
both medical staff and patients and most importantly the carrier and messenger of the
noble cause being taken up.
The Mobile Eye Clinic will operate primarily in Raipur and its neighboring Districts, in both
Rural and Urban areas. Camps will be organized regularly with approximately, 1 camp every
week. The Mobile Eye Clinic will be used to reach both city and remote areas, covering both
urban and rural parts of the state. The Goal will be to assist at least 1000 - 1200 patients
every month, providing medical care at subsidized costs compared to other hospitals for
both outpatient and surgical treatments. The aim will be to travel across Chhattisgarh from
Raipur, covering a distance of at least 150 kms and offering services in Raipur District and
the neighboring districts like Bemetara, Mahasamund, Durg, Mungeli, Kawardha, and
Baloda Bazar.
The Medical Team will engage with people who will be visiting the camps in various ways
such as making general eye checkups & focusing on various specific issues related to the
eyes. One such major and common issue is that of Glaucoma. As per reports 80-90% of
Glaucoma still remains untreated because of lack of awareness of damage caused by Eye
Pressure. Eye pressure, also known as intraocular pressure (IOP), is a key factor in detecting
a condition called glaucoma. Glaucoma damages the optic nerve, which can lead to vision
loss or blindness if not treated. Monitoring eye pressure helps catch glaucoma early when
it's easier to manage and prevent vision loss.
The objective of the camps organized will be to examine visitors and identify people having
issues with their eyes. They will be further referred to and offered treatment at the main
hospital, at Raipur. The team will also engage in conducting basic eye care awareness
sessions, at camp locations.
The Mobile Eye Clinic will be equipped with machinery and equipment, some of which are
Slit Lamp, LED I Chart, Auto Refractometer & Non-Contact Tono Meter. The Exterior of the
Mobile Eye Clinic will carry the message of the noble cause, along with the branding of
Rotary and the associates of the project.
