An example is EyeSite’s pioneering eye disease prescreening service. Through a simple 10-minute test, doctors and medical staff can detect if a patient has possible complications due to cataract, glaucoma, cornea or retina problems.

“Through this technology, we can help in preventing sight-threatening diseases that could potentially cripple the livelihood of the family. The cost and time spent to take the test is minimal but the benefit is far-reaching,” said Liboro.

EyeSite by Asian Eye Institute is open from 10 a.m.-8 p.m. from Monday to Sunday. For inquiries, call 364-3287 or 950-8366 or like EyeSitePH on Facebook.
