The Jordan Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP) has initiated its third campaign to combat blindness, with the goal of performing 800 free cataract surgeries as part of its ongoing efforts to enhance the quality of life for eye patients across the Kingdom.

The campaign, announced on Tuesday, is organized in collaboration with the Al Basar International Foundation, Bios Foundation, Al-Khansa Hospital, and Amman Pharmaceutical Industries, under the patronage of Ziad Zoubi, President of the Jordan Medical Association.
