The commissioner expressed the state government's appreciation for the eye team's prompt visit and assessment that necessitated the intervention.

'The team's action came at a time when it was so crucial and a medically realistic solution was needed as information base for further support, socially and financially from necessary quarters.

"Government is better informed about the woman in question and we hope to build on this relationship to deliver effective healthcare to the good people of the state," he said. (NAN)
