Doctors of Sankara Nethralaya, a premier eye hospital here, are keeping their fingers crossed over the restoration of the eyesight of 15 patients, referred by the Guwahati government hospital, diagnosed as having 'some (unidentified) infection'. Hospital sources said, "All of them are suffering from some infection in their eyes - some are salvageable and others are not. However, it is too early to say anything about restoration of full vision for all the Assamese patients. We are not aware from where they contracted this infection." The patients arrived in two batches since October 3 and are undergoing intensive treatment in the hospital, they said. Some of the patients have already undergone surgery, while others are under treatment, the sources added. The hospital was expecting more patients, they said.
