Across Pakistan, nearly one in ten people are visually impaired, with more than two million people blind in both eyes. Hundreds of people go blind every day, often from preventable causes like cataract.
People in Western countries have ready access to cataract surgery, but in Pakistan, most people do not. We are therefore, putting gall efforts in providing state of the art facilities to the poor; we require your support in facilitating in reducing the high number of visually impaired people in Pakistan. Our purpose is to improve Pakistan’s current health system so that we can have workable eye care services for the nation.
There are numerous cases that we come across and we are unable to cater to all of them; because of which, we require your support to grow further and provide these underprivileged their lost sight.
We once again urge you to continue with your support and help us in making this program grow to every corner of Pakistan.
Thank you for your continued support!
