Donations make our work possible

Our activities for good eye care are possible through active funding. Eye Care Foundation runs entirely on donations, large and small. Donations make our work possible; without them, these regions have no opportunities for good eye care. We use our donations directly for all our activities.

Our activities are completely clear

Our focus is on improving, preventing and curing. This is what we do:

  • 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

Together for better vision
