title: [Benefits of the 2002-2003 National Program of Extramural Surgery of the ministry of health in ophthalmologic care].
abstract: In a recent past article, we reported the general considerations of the national program of extramural surgery in Mexico from the national health secretary. The results obtained concerning ophthalmic care during the last 2 years are presented to provide new information about what has been done in our country, in specialized ophthalmologic care to the economically disadvantaged population who do not have access to other types of medical ophthalmic attention, especially for cataracts and strabismus.
