Surgeries like cleft lips, cleft pallet, squint, dermabrasion, scar revision, ptosis and nasal deformities will be performed by the doctors during this camp," Rathi said.

Patients can register their names on Dec 13, where Lion club doctors will check them and decide on a surgery to be held on the same day till Dec 17.
