Pan Asia Bank successfully concluded a joint project with the Kelaniya Rotary Club to open an eye clinic designed with senior citizens in mind in Matara district.

The program’s main objectives were to elevate the quality of life and overall wellbeing of senior citizens in Matara by providing them with the much-needed eye care services. The services provided ranged from eye examinations to prescriptions of eyeglasses, as well as the option of selecting frames and lenses.

The project’s first day, which spanned two days, saw its inaugural day on 6 April, at the Attorney General’s Office in Matara. Reputed ophthalmologists gave our clients advice and consultations, making sure they got the assistance and treatment they required.

Pan Asia Bank is a private bank that has one of the largest government pensioners customer base in Sri Lanka and over 100 Government retirees from Pan Asia Banks Sammana customer base of Matara were selected to receive eye care and support. Furthermore, the same degree of care and support was given to 25 deserving customers who were determined based on information provided by Matara Niladhari Division.

Pan Asia Bank Director/CEO Naleen Edirisinghe said: “This CSR project was a great opportunity for us to partner with the Rotary Club of Kelaniya and we are really happy about it. Through combining our resources and skills, we were able to make a significant impact in the lives of pensioners, worthy customers, and other senior citizens in the Matara region.”
