The Arclight is an innovative medical tool, which makes diagnosis increasingly inexpensive, accessible and simple. Consequently, having profound impacts on lower income countries and empowering those most in need.  Dr. Martin Anderson is an ophthalmologist and

Andrews. His talk will describe the huge challenge
of global blindness and deafness and introduce a
new, frugal, solar-powered diagnostic tool called
the Arclight that is playing an important role in the
