At the same time, workers are also guided on eye care methods, and advised on appropriate treatment directions to limit the impact on daily life and work.

According to the Tien Thanh Ward Trade Union, many union members have low incomes, so they have few conditions to have health check-ups.

Therefore, free eye exams not only help detect diseases early but also contribute to reducing the cost burden for workers in difficult circumstances.
