Restore eyesight to 2000 villagers in India

Dear Supporters,

We are pleased to inform you that with your generous donations we have been till date able to restore vision of 351 needy, poor and marginalized cataract blind people. All these beneficiaries express their sincere gratitude and give their heartflet blessings for coming forward to support them when they needed it the most. 

Your contributions have allowed them to lead their life again as earlier, become independent, earn for their family, take care of them and most important feel better about themselves. Now, they can see this world and work hard towards fulfilling their dreams.

Life is hard for many of us. Some can deal with it and some get use to it due to their inability to deal with it. Some people need support and hence we appreciate your efforts in helping us transform their lives. Not many get the opportunity to witness the transformation that took place in the life of the beneficiaries with your kind contribution. So, here I am to present the progress report so that you can know what you contribution helped us acheive in the last quarter:

Since our last update, 10 Village Screening camps were organised in different villages and in every Screening camp 30-35 people were checked for various eye issues. Some were diagnosed of cataract and were duly referred to the Eye Hospital for further check-up. 

Out of many diagnosed, Muni was one of them. He is a 60 year old poor marginal farmer. He belong to Pandeybara village and came to know about the Screening camp via the advertisemnt done by us. He attended the Screening camp and was diagnosed of cataract in his right eye. During diagnosis his vision of Right eye was 6/60. He was brought to the hospital and with proper check-up was operated for cataract on 19th August, 2015. His vision is currently 6/9 after surgery and he can see clearly now.

He has four sons but none of them live with him. He takes care of his wife himself. With his improved vision he can work like earlier and is extremely grateful for the support in restoring his vision.

He said " Life was really difficult and I did not know how to fix the problem due to my financial issues. No one came forward to help. You people are like angels in my life who came to help me. I express my sincere gratitude for your kind support. God bless you all".

Thanking You

With Regards

With the aim to contribute towards the World Vision 2020; NBJK successfully established two Eye care hospitals in the remote rural villages of Jharkhand, India in the year 2005 and 2008 respectively. The two hospitals aim to provide quality Eye care services at affordable, subsidised and free cost for the rural population who did not have access to eye care services. 

Since its inception, the Hospital is a blessing for the thousands of underpriviledged people who were going blind without any intervention due to poverty and lack of intervention in the area. Today, NBJK caters eye care services to 50,000 people every year in the remote rural areas by conducting Village Screening camps at their doorstep. All the patients are examined by a qualified doctor and if diagnosed of cataract are brought to the hospital and are treated free of cost with proper pre and post medication. 

Tetri, was also suffering from cataract like many other people until our Village Screening Camp was organised in her village. She was suffering from cataract since last 1 year but could not afford her treatment due to poverty. She came to know about the camp and attended it. She was diagnosed of cataract in her left eye and was brought to the hospital for further check-up and surgery. After proper pre check-up she was successfully operated on 18th February, 2015. Today, she can see clearly and is very happy for the kind support. She can take care of herself and even look after her family.

The two Eye Hospitals are a ray of hope for rural poor people who are going blind every year due to poverty. The patients in the area who have restored their vision express their sincere graitude towards the hospital and also create awareness regarding eye care to other people in need. 

Your kind support is helping us to reach more people in need. Please keep supporting as always our work to restore vision of needy and poor people. We wish to contribute towards elimination of avoidable blindness by catering services in the poor, remote and inaccessible places. 

Thanking You
