Our Rotary Club of Calcutta Jadavpur (RCCJ) participated in a consultation at Jadavpur University with the University of Salford (UK) to integrate genetic screening into glaucoma care. The session addressed the needs of 11 million affected Indians, proposing that genetic testing be included in state guidelines for patients under 40. RCCJ contributed practical insights from its ongoing support of families dealing with hereditary vision loss to emphasise the importance of early intervention. This collaboration seeks to establish pilot counselling units in government hospitals to prevent blindness in children, aligning with national health frameworks.
