How amazing!

What an awesome day! 😁🤓😎👓🕶️On behalf of the Rotary Bargain Box, Hermanus and the Ferdi Marais Vision Project, we handed over 74 assorted pairs of spectacles, along with 45 spectacle cases, 3 spectacle sleeves, and 3 sunny clip-on frames to Dr Johanna Fourie at the eye clinic.

These items will be distributed to patients attending the clinic.

We sincerely thank all who donated their unused spectacles. Your generosity is greatly appreciated and continues to change lives 🤓

Nine more grateful patients have received the gift of restored vision at Advanced Health Day Hospital in Durbanville this October.

Thank you Drs Junet van der Merwe and Matthys Theron, and everyone involved.

Several patients are now seeing the world anew — with laughter and courage at Advanced Durbanville Surgical Centre — after they have received free cataract surgeries.
