The Andhra Pradesh Residency Program
Published 2nd April 2026
The Andhra Pradesh Residency Program continued in March 2026, with the participation of residents from local and surrounding districts’ medical colleges.
The programme comprised two dedicated cornea workshops. One workshop was conducted on March 29, 2026 at the Rajasekhara Reddy Campus in Kadapa, and engaged 20 residents. The second workshop was held on March 28, 2026 at the GMR Varalakshmi Campus in Visakhapatnam, with the participation of 22 residents.
Both the workshops had case-based sessions, alongside wet lab practices.
The leadership team at Cognizant Foundation appreciated the program’s clinical excellence, innovation, and unwavering commitment to eliminating avoidable ROP-related blindness. The visit not only highlighted the program’s impact but also reinforced the shared vision of Cognizant Foundation and LVPEI to ensure that every preterm infant in Odisha has access to timely, equitable, and life-changing eye care.
