Flying Eye Hospital Heading To Peru

Wednesday, September 3, 2014 | Sacramento, CA
  

On Sept. 5, a team of doctors from UC Davis including eye surgeons, anesthesiologists and a recovery room nurse will fly to Trujillo, Peru to perform special eye care for Peruvian citizens. The team will travel via the Flying Eye Hospital, a DC10 cargo jet that transformed from within into a state-of-the-art operating room and classroom. They plan to test the vision of both adults and children in addition to perform sight restoration surgeries. UC Davis's new dean of Health Systems will attend the trip as well in order to explore further medical partnership with a local university hospital in Trujillo.
