Glaucoma Awareness week

Synapse, the esteemed scientific committee of Dr B R Ambedkar Medical College, recently concluded a successful Glaucoma Week event held from March 10th to March 15th. Spearheaded by the enthusiastic and dedicated medical students, the week-long initiative aimed to raise awareness about glaucoma, its silent progression, and the importance of early detection within the local community.

Glaucoma, often dubbed the "silent thief of sight," is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. Recognizing the critical need for public education, the students of Synapse along with the department of ophthalmology meticulously planned and executed a series of engaging and informative activities.
