Dr. Mboni says the hospital attends to both children and adults adding that 20 children undergo surgery every week.
Dr. Mboni, who is also the Head Clinical Care (HCC) at the hospital, says some of the conditions in children include cataract, glaucoma, squint, ptosis among others.
Dr. Mboni said in an interview that sensitization campaigns, good results, and referrals by other health facilities could be attributed to the increase in the number of patients being attended to at the hospital.
“The number of patients we are attending at the eye ward keep on increasing and about 20 children are operated on every week,” he said.
