This is how we work

The support of Eye Care Foundation is aimed at people living in countries where proper eye care is unattainable – because of the infrastructure or finances. We aim to prevent or cure avoidable blindness and vision impairment. These medical conditions have significant consequences.

Our way of working offers stable support and a sustainable future by:
  • Training local medical personnel and volunteers
  • Setting up field offices for general support and medical management
  • Building eye clinics at easy-to-reach locations
  • Donating medical eye care equipment
  • Financing cataract surgeries
  • Eye exams for elderly and schoolchildren
  • Prescribing eyeglasses
This is how we achieve sustainable eye care. For better vision – now and in the future.
