Trade union organizes free eye exams for union members in difficult circumstances

On May 10, Ms. Dao Thi Ha Ny - Chairwoman of Tien Thanh Ward Trade Union (Lam Dong province) said that she had just coordinated to organize a free eye exam program for union members and workers in difficult circumstances in the area.

The program is implemented by Tien Thanh Ward Trade Union in coordination with Tien Thanh Ward Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee and Saigon-Binh Thuan Eye Hospital on the occasion of Workers' Month 2026.

Here, 40 union members who are elderly workers in difficult circumstances belonging to affiliated grassroots trade unions were examined, visually checked and consulted on eye health by medical staff.

Through examination, doctors and nurses conducted screening for many common diseases such as glaucoma, refractive errors, cataracts...

At the same time, workers are also guided on eye care methods, and advised on appropriate treatment directions to limit the impact on daily life and work.

According to the Tien Thanh Ward Trade Union, many union members have low incomes, so they have few conditions to have health check-ups.

Therefore, free eye exams not only help detect diseases early but also contribute to reducing the cost burden for workers in difficult circumstances.

The program is a practical activity in Workers' Month 2026.

Thereby, showing the concern and companionship of the trade union organization and coordinating units for the lives and health of union members and workers in the area.
