Eye examination in Průhonice

Better eyesight, better quality of life

In September, the clients of ALZHEIMER HOME underwent a complete screening for cataracts, glaucoma, retinal and optic nerve damage and an examination of diabetic and hypertonic changes in the retina. The painless examination was prepared for them by a team of medical professionals headed by Chief Medical Officer Andrej Farkas, MD.

The medical staff attended to the clients with such personal commitment that a simple eye examination became a social experience, and the ladies were especially delighted with the friendly head doctor. The examinations were comfortable, with no complicated travel, no sitting in a waiting room, and no stress from unfamiliar machines. Clients were examined in the office, which is an integral part of the ALZEHIMER HOME building, or directly at the bedside, depending on the health condition of the clients.

We were very surprised by the results. More than half of the clients were diagnosed with eye diseases requiring further treatment, which is already being provided. Improving the client's eyesight will help improve their quality of life and also contribute to their ability to participate in activation activities.
