Mexico Trip

This year I went on the same optometry trip to Mexico as last year. The trip is organized through the Indiana University chapter of Volunteer Optometric Services to Humanity (VOSH). We stayed in a hotel in Guanajuato, Mexico and traveled to Silao, Mexico every day on a bus to see patients at the eye clinic. We saw approximately 500 patients per day for 5 days, then we had two free days to explore the city. The first pictures show some of the students wearing the donated glasses we dispensed, riding the bus to the clinic, the second year students on the trip, the tent of waiting patients, and the boxes of glasses waiting to be dispensed.
