Dr Ikenna Ugwu Provides Free Eye Care to Over 300 Enugu South Residents

Dr Ikenna Ugwu, a Delta State–based optometrist, offered free eye examinations, medications, high blood pressure checks, prescription glasses and contact lenses to more than 300 citizens of Amechi Uwani and nearby communities in Enugu South LGA. The outreach was organised in memory of his late parents, known for their philanthropy. Ugwu and two colleagues discovered many residents were unaware of underlying eye conditions, which often go untreated until they threaten sight. Community leaders and beneficiaries praised the initiative, noting its positive impact amid economic challenges. Many called on government bodies and well-meaning individuals to partner with the optometrist in efforts to eliminate preventable blindness.
