Low Vision Clinic opened on November 18, 2024, at the Hospital of the Mongolian National University of Medical Sciences (MNUMS) as part of the Australian Government’s micro-aid program.

Aiming to be the most effective center for providing assistance and improving knowledge to people with low vision and visual impairments, 46 equipment of 14 types have been installed at the clinic. As Mongolia lacks specialized service centers and care services for people with low vision, the clinic is anticipated to facilitate the service and outreach. Specifically, the clinic will provide comprehensive eye examinations and vision care, help clients choose low-vision devices, support people with low vision in increasing their social participation, improve their quality of life, advising clients on how to live independently and safely every day. It will serve people of all ages with visual impairments.

Additionally, practical group exercises addressed Mongolia's prevalent disasters such as wildfires, floods, and water-related accidents. These exercises provided opportunities to exchange experiences and refine collaborative response techniques.
