Preventing Global Blindness, Sustainably
What We Do
Clinical Care
Our volunteers travel to underserved areas and provide advanced retinal care to patients.
Training
We sponsor 1-2 local ophthalmologists to receive advanced retinal training in eligible institutions, following which they return and provide care to patients, while also training others.
Instruments
We provide instruments and infrastructure help to the regions we work in, thus making sure that the trained doctor has enough resources at hand to continue to provide retinal care.

How does it work?
Trained Retina Specialists from the United States, Canada, Mexico, and other places volunteer their time and expertise to travel to the areas we are currently working in.
These retina specialists travel for a week at a time. Different people travel throughout the year, thus providing better supportive coverage for patients where there was none before.
