I appreciate their great efforts because it is not the first time, they have gathered us in this hall for the days related to human health and life. Vision Week is within the effective days in the world.

Ladies and gentlemen, the department of eye examination has always continued to present seminars and workshops which is commendable. Other departments of the institute have done such works. In fact, the Medical Technical Institute should pay more attention to these issues not only for students, teachers and university staff, but also to enter the community and interact with the community. Society constantly needs the knowledge that university teachers have to listen to and use in life, especially in general health, whether it is vision or medicine and birth I think these activities should continue, especially workshops and seminars. For example, we should go to a neighborhood around Erbil and give seminars to the people there on any topic I am very pleased with the activities carried out in the institute. I hope to expand it. We would like to thank the department of eye examination and the deanship of the institute for conducting this workshop.
