The majority of elderly people said they often forgot to put their own things, forgot the current day and date. The purpose of this community service activity is to improve cognitive abilities in the elderly and to train the visual acuity of the elderly. Community service activities were attended by 35 elderly people and 7 nursing home officers. The methods used were providing education, demonstrations and providing group activity therapy with a guessing game. The results of the activity showed that eye exercise modality therapy and guessing cognitive therapy had a positive impact on improving the visual acuity and memory of the elderly. The results of the observation showed that the elderly were able to guess the pieces of the picture displayed and were able to remember the sounds that appeared from the pictures displayed during the activity. Group activity therapy activities such as guessing picture games and eye exercise modality therapy should continue to be given to the elderly to slow down the occurrence of dementia, improve memory, improve visual acuity and provide entertainment so that the elderly do not feel bored in living their daily lives.
