Kairouan launches cataract study convoy
Today, a specialized medical convoy focused on ophthalmology and eye surgery is operating in Al-Waslatia city, Kairouan governorate. The initiative aims to detect cataracts (white water disease) as part of a regional campaign involving four convoys that began on August 29 in Al-Ala and will conclude on September 12 in Kairouan. The convoy, which includes university-trained specialized doctors, targets individuals over the age of 50, with free surgical procedures organized for those diagnosed. Healthcare authorities also plan to facilitate patient reception, screening, and transportation to make diagnostic and treatment services more accessible, as part of efforts to bring healthcare closer to the interior regions.
