Free Eye Screening and Spectacle Distribution for Farming Communities

As part of its commitment to community wellbeing, KMN Aqua organised a free eye screening and spectacle distribution programme for farming villages connected to the shrimp aquaculture sector.

The initiative aimed to support the health and quality of life of farmers and their families by providing professional eye examinations and free spectacles for those in need. Many farmers face vision challenges that can affect daily work and long-term wellbeing, and this programme helped address those needs through early detection and corrective support.

By bringing essential healthcare services directly to rural communities, KMN Aqua reinforced its responsibility beyond aquaculture—supporting the people who sustain the industry. This initiative reflects KMN Aqua’s dedication to social responsibility, community development, and creating a positive, lasting impact within farming communities.
