The school screening program is in full swing in Kindia (Guinea).
The team of Dr KABA, department head of our ophthalmological unit, led a prevention campaign among the city's first and final year students. Several high school girls have been screened for advanced myopia. After a thorough eye exam, they were made a pair of corrective glasses so that they could continue their studies in much better conditions.
A small, gracious gesture which, according to them unanimously, considerably changes their point of view on their schooling!

After the end-of-year festivities, celebrated in Guinea as in France, AMSO is preparing for great celebrations.
Our historic partner, specialized in the treatment of eye pathologies, will benefit from the partnership that Voir La Vie has signed with the KRYS Group Foundation. The brand's opticians will go to their homes to apply the new corrective glasses manufacturing process that we have designed for them.
Staff training is planned by volunteers from the Hesteau/Klienkoff company who support us. Adboulaye Nabé, director of the association and Dr Hawa Soumah, ophthalmologist, seemed to be watching the sky to thank him for this great opportunity to finally fit their patients with the same quality of frames as those distributed by us.

The Voir La Vie program in Benin is in full swing. As we did in Guinea, today we needed to equip ourselves with an established and recognized local representation. It was Dr. Valentin KOUCHADE who agreed to become the official legal representative of Voir la Vie au Bénin.
This young pulmonologist, based in Porto-Novo and father of 4 children, is originally from Pobè, the town where we opened our ophthalmological unit in October 2016. Valentin will be responsible for assisting us with local administrative procedures (renewal of framework agreements with the Ministry of Health) and will be our operational agent in welcoming and managing training missions.
When we asked him why he accepted our proposal, Valentin replied, with his trademark broad smile: “We are moving forward together on the path to success”.
A star is born.
