Caption: On a chilly day in Camaná, Peru, we set up our mission eye clinic in an abandoned gymnasium. Makeshift tents serve as examination rooms and benches as dispensary shelves. Hundreds of Peruvians line up for free eye examinations. Spanish and English words fly around as I leave my tent to take a break from a hectic morning examining patients. In a nearby tent, I encounter my colleague performing direct ophthalmoscopy with great focus. He leans back and she shakily reaches out to hold his hand. He sits down in front of her and smiles. “Ojos sanos”, he says in broken Spanish. Healthy eyes. She breathes relief and tears stream down her face. “Reading glasses will help you read your Bible again”. She beams and whispers in gratitude, “Gracias, doctor.” Thank you, doctor. God bless you.
Being in the optometry profession is more than prescribing glasses to help patients see 20/20. It is being in a position to examine and educate patients about their eyes, alleviate their fears, help them achieve their goals, and in the best cases, assist them in regaining something that they once thought was lost. As optometrists, we understand the importance of maximizing visual function so our patients are able to perform their daily activities, interact with the people around them and maintain a sense of who they are in this world. Our duties go far beyond 20/20, as we not only examine eyes but take care of our patients’ visual needs as well, to the best of our abilities and knowledge.

Caption: I met Manang upon fulfilling my pilgrimage in Guinarona Church, Dagami, Leyte and I noticed that her right eye was always closed. I asked her what happened to it and she told me that the said eye is getting blind due to cataract.
Cataract is known to be one of the main causes of blindness among elderly people and as she permitted me to take some frames of her eye condition, she also shared with me her high hopes that through my portraits of her, some one from somewhere who will be seeing her condition will share heartfelt generosity to help her before her eyesight completely succumbs to blindness.
