In response to society’s increasing focus on grassroots healthcare, particularly the urgent need for eye health, Zheng Tian New Materials Co., Ltd. recently partnered with the Yongjia Qiaoxia Town Government and the Linshan Village Committee to hold a public welfare event titled “Hundred Doctors Going to the Grassroots.” The event aimed at providing local residents with professional eye health screenings, health education, and medical resources. Not only did the event reflect the company’s sense of social responsibility, but it also provided valuable medical assistance to the grassroots population and received widespread praise.
Eye Health Issues Need Urgent Attention, and the Shortage of Grassroots Medical Resources Is Prominent
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), more than 1 billion people around the world suffer from eye diseases due to a lack of timely vision correction or medical intervention, particularly in rural and remote areas. The shortage of medical resources and the lack of health awareness exacerbate the problem of eye health. Common eye conditions such as cataracts, glaucoma, and refractive errors often progress to irreversible vision damage or blindness due to the lack of early screening and treatment.
In response to these severe issues, Zheng Tian New Materials Co., Ltd., in collaboration with the Yongjia Qiaoxia Town Government, Linshan Village Committee, and other organizations, launched this event with the goal of increasing awareness of eye health in grassroots communities through screening, diagnosis, and education, bringing light and hope to local residents.
Extensive Medical Services Benefit Hundreds of Residents
This public welfare event fully utilized the expertise of a professional medical team, attracting many grassroots residents. At the event, several health check stations were set up, including vision testing, slit-lamp eye examination, tear duct irrigation, blood pressure and blood sugar testing, and more. Experts from various fields such as ophthalmology, orthopedics, and dentistry provided on-site professional health guidance and treatment plans. Ophthalmic specialists patiently addressed various eye health concerns, offering a green channel for patients needing cataract surgery and assisting with surgery fee reductions. Additionally, free reading glasses were distributed to participants, and there was also promotion of legal knowledge, anti-fraud campaigns, health education, and telecommunications services.
Starting at 8 a.m., long lines formed as residents registered for free eye health screenings, which included:
- Basic Vision Tests:Testing each resident’s vision to identify potential problems.
- Ophthalmic Disease Screening:Professional doctors used portable ophthalmic equipment for initial screenings of cataracts, glaucoma, and retinal diseases.
- Refractive Error Correction Services:Free eyeglasses for those in need of vision correction.
- Health Consultation and Treatment Advice:Doctors provided personalized treatment suggestions and referral support for patients requiring further care.
In just one day, the event conducted eye health checks for over 1,000 residents.
“I feel my eyes get tired quickly when reading, and I can’t see clearly,” said Mr. He, a local resident. “Today, they gave me a pair of reading glasses, and I just tried them on; they are very practical. Thank you so much.” Many attendees expressed their appreciation for the wide range of services offered. They not only gained more health knowledge but also received direct access to professional medical care, which greatly benefited the local population, particularly the elderly. They hoped that such practical, grassroots-oriented events could be held regularly.
Fulfilling Corporate Social Responsibility
The head of Zheng Tian New Materials Co., Ltd. stated: “The eyes are the windows to the soul. We hope our efforts can bring more light to rural residents’ lives, and we also hope more companies will join in public welfare actions to contribute to society.”
This eye health public welfare event not only provided tangible help to grassroots residents but also sowed seeds of love and hope within the community.
This event is not a one-off initiative. The company plans to continue the “Caring for Light” series of activities, regularly reaching out to different regions, especially those with limited medical resources, to bring more light and hope to grassroots communities.
The company also calls on more businesses, organizations, and individuals to join in the public welfare efforts to improve the health conditions of grassroots residents.
Positive Social Response and Future Progress
The event not only provided essential health support to grassroots residents but also demonstrated Zheng Tian New Materials Co., Ltd.’s image as a pioneer in corporate social responsibility. After the event, local residents expressed their gratitude, and the local government highly praised the company’s significant contribution to promoting grassroots healthcare.
In the future, Zheng Tian New Materials Co., Ltd. will continue to explore more possibilities for social welfare, steadfastly pursuing its vision of “Co-Creating a Better Future.” By focusing on grassroots health and improving people’s livelihoods, the company has not only left a deep mark on the path of public welfare but has also made its social value shine even brighter.
