Bundung Maternal and Child Hospital has achieved a major milestone with the successful completion of its first eye surgeries since the facility’s establishment. The procedures conducted this week, included three cataract surgeries and one pterygium surgery for the first of it kind at the hospital.

While the hospital’s primary mandate is maternal and child health, management says the expansion into eye care reflects a broader commitment to public health priorities, including the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). CEO Cham noted that eye health is critical to achieving Goal 3: Good Health and Well-being.

The hospital management credited the breakthrough to a coordinated effort involving several institutions and individuals. Among those recognized were CEO Dr. Mamady Cham, the National Eye Health Programme, Sheikh Zayed Eye Hospital, and Senior Consultant Ophthalmologist Dr. Winston Ceesay.

This is a bold step beyond our traditional boundaries, Dr. Cham said, adding that the hospital intends to build on the achievement by offering more specialized services in the future.
