Glaucoma Week screening event in Kragujevac
Ophthalmologists in Kragujevac are conducting free glaucoma screenings this week, offering eye pressure checks and examinations for interested citizens without referrals.
Clinicians at the University Clinical Centre in Kragujevac, Serbia, are running a public glaucoma screening campaign as part of World Glaucoma Week. From March 9–13, 2026, ophthalmologists perform preventive eye-pressure measurements and related examinations from 12:00 to 14:00 on the ground floor of the centre for all citizens without appointments or formal referrals. The initiative aims to detect glaucoma or elevated eye pressure early, especially among people over 45, those with a family history of glaucoma, and patients already diagnosed. Serbian authorities estimate that more than 150,000 people in the country have glaucoma, and the action supports early diagnosis and prevention.
