HKU EYE CENTRE INAUGURAL REPORT

Apart from serving the local population, we train eye doctors and o�er eye care services to residents in the less privileged regions. Our mission in promoting eye health is global and regional. Throughout the years, we have been actively participating in local and international non-governmental organizations, such as Lifeline Express and Orbis. Our sta� have served as visiting consultants for Lifeline Express and volunteer faculties in Orbis to train ophthalmologists and perform complicated ocular surgery. In collaboration with Lifeline Express, we have initiated the Diabetic Retinopathy Screening (DRS) Community Programme to help promote public knowledge and raise community awareness of diabetic retinopathy. The DRS programme has o�ered free DR screening to members of the public at multiple locations across Hong Kong. We have provided grading service for over 2,000 participants screened by DRS since 2017.
