THE JOHN FAWCETT FOUNDATION YAYASAN KEMANUSIAAN INDONESIA
sight restoration & blindness prevention T
he key to the success of this Project is the availability of skilled local ophthalmologists and during 2009 we focused on the surgical training of new ophthalmologists, a focus we will follow through into 2010. Five newly-graduated ophthalmologists undertook wetlab training with Australian volunteer ophthalmologists, Dr Gordon Bougher and Dr Ian Spencer. Dr Wayan Dharyata continued the training in the mobile clinics over the following months. Two of the newly-trained ophthalmologists joined our surgical team – Dr Dini and Dr Cosmas – and are now working with our teams in the mobile clinics. PATIENTS SCREENED
