General Note
An image from Wesley Fishel's photograph collection of a nurse caring for an elderly man's eye, while five others wait on a bench by the wall. The label on the bottom of the photograph reads, "In a rural dispensary south of Saigon, a village nurse puts drops in the eyes of an aged farmer suffering from 'pink-eye.' All districts and nearly all villages in South Vietnam have such dispensaries. Serious cases are referred to one of the 43 provincial hospitals in the country. (TCB-095 Photo One, Ma 1971.)"
