Optometrist Visits Guatemala
Marillac Optometrist Participates in Eye Mission Trip to Guatemala.
Dr Ashley Elliott, OD
In March, Ashley Elliott, OD, Marillac Optometrist,
traveled with a group of 26 other medical volunteers from Vision Health
International to Guastatoya, Guatemala. This is Dr. Elliott’s third
such trip.
During VHI’s one week stay, over 1700 patients were
evaluated and received services ranging from eyeglasses to sight-restoring
surgery. “The experience of helping to restore the gift of sight to
those in need is indescribable,” said Dr. Elliott.
Dr. Elliott hopes to return to Guatemala next year for a similar trip.
