A delegation of Vietnamese voluntary doctors on July 25 wrapped up their working trip to Cambodia’s Svay Rieng border province where they provided free eye examinations and surgeries to the poor patients.
The trip was jointly organised by the Tay Ninh Red Cross and Nguyen Trai hospital in Ho Chi Minh City.
Within two days’ working, the Vietnamese doctors conducted cataract surgeries for 176 patients and distributed free medication to 310 others in the province.
The total cost of the trip, including operation fee, medicines and gifts to the people, was 200 million VND (roughly 10,400 USD).
