Israeli innovation brings optic aid to nursing homes in Portugal – The Jerusalem Post

According to Rafi Gamzu, Israel’s ambassador to Portugal, the van is expected to reach hundreds of old-age homes.

It premiered on October 8, which was World Sight Day.

“The quarantines and lockdowns have been a continuous policy for nursing homes since the outbreak of the pandemic, and they’ve since been presented with unprecedented challenges, ones that make their lives extremely difficult,” Gamzu added. “What we’re doing with Shamir will provide much-needed attention and, hopefully, a solution.”
