New Delhi, June 14 redBus, Indias largest online bus ticketing platform, has screened 4,000 bus drivers across India, for vision and other health issues associated with the onset of diabetes, as part of its CSR initiative.The programme was conducted in partnership with MakeMyTrip Foundation and VisionSpring Foundation to promote road safety and ensure the well-being of bus drivers and bus operator staff.The screenings were conducted in collaboration with qualified professionals from VisionSpring, guaranteeing high safety standards and hygiene, at 70 different camps held at convenient locations across Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Mumbai and Pune.During the screenings, the patients diagnosed with vision impairment were provided with free eyeglasses, and for cases requiring hospital intervention, VisionSpring's backward integration with various hospitals enabled patients to be redirected to hospitals for treatment at subsidised rates."Bus drivers spend long hours on the road, and their health and well-being are of utmost importance," said Manoj Agarwala, Chief Business Officer at redBus."Through Mission Vision, we aim to provide drivers with access to free eye tests and diabetes screenings, which can help them identify potential health issues early on and prevent long-term damage. We are grateful to VisionSpring for partnering with us on this initiative and helping us ensure the well-being of our partner bus operator's workforce," Agarwala added.Diabetes and vision care are important health parameters that are often overlooked. Due to their frequent travels and erratic schedules, bus drivers rarely have enough time to get themselves tested.About 4,000 bus drivers and other staff members undertook the screening and 2,277 eyeglasses were provided free of cost, 96 per cent of whom were first time wearers.redBus observed an overwhelming response to the tests as the participants visited the camps in large numbers."We are delighted to partner with redBus and Makemytrip Foundation on this initiative and provide drivers with access to free eye and diabetes screenings," said Anshu Taneja, Managing Director at VisionSpring India.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
