    SPECIALIZED OPHTHALMOLOGICAL SERVICES TO BECOME AVAILABLE FOR THE CHILDREN OF THE REGION AND ARMENIA

    09:47, 27 February, 2013

    YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 27, ARMENPRESS: Center of Excellence for Prevention
    of Childhood Blindness (CEPCB) is scheduled to be established in
    the frame of Armenian ophthalmological project. The center will
    operate in the end of the year in Yerevan. The CEPCB is seeking to
    struggle against children's individual blindness and retinopatia. Minas
    Hambarzumyan, head of Armenian eye care project (AECP) told Armenpress
    "the scope of the AECP provision of ophthalmological services to
    children of Armenia and the region".

    2012 has been commemorated with a number of events for AECO and its
    partners. Namely 12th International ophthalmological conference was
    launched in Yerevan on September 14-15. Representatives of various
    ophthalmological branches from USA, Europe and CIS countries took
    part in the conference.

    The Armenian EyeCare Project (hereafter AECP) is a US-based charity
    organization founded in 1992 by Armenian-American ophthalmologist Dr.

    Roger Ohanesian. Its mission is to eliminate preventable blindness
    and make eye care accessible to all people in Armenia. To this end,
    many highly qualified American academic ophthalmologists have been
    invited to visit Armenia to treat patients and share the knowledge
    with their Armenian colleagues. As well, large quantities of medication
    and equipment have been brought to Armenia.
