Eye camp surgeries are the backbone of surgical modalities for the rural population of India, because there is a paucity of ophthalmologists. In these areas and at the same time poor rural patients are not in a position to have an ophthalmic consultation in urban areas. I feel, at present, eye camp surgery has also gone tremendously changed. All the cataract operations are operated under the microscope with best possible equipment. Only thing is the organization.
If organised well under a good team of ophthalmologists and voluntary services proper as a selection of staff or post-operative care and proper selection of cases. I feel eye camp surgery is safe provided. All the precautions of sterilisation of instruments, post-operative care assessment of fluid BSS and ringer lactate to see any contamination.
