T.E.S. Foundation’s  30th mission will take place during the third week of January 2014.

This mission is organised in collaboration with the Weill Cornell Medical School. Dr Ana Alzaga will supervise the corneal graft program of the week, while Dr. Grace Sun’s concern  will be drawn by administrative and teaching aspects.

Corneal grafts will be provided both by The Eye Bank for Sight Restoration, Inc. in New York  and by the Lion’s Club of Port-Louis.

Furthermore, Dr Harry Roux (chief resident  in HUG) will stay 7 months in Subramaniam Bharati Eye Hospital. He will become part of Moka’s surgical team. This collaboration has been made possible thanks to the support of Fond Castier, the Hôpitaux Universitaires de Genève and T.E.S. Foundation.
