Vision is a gift, and everyone deserves to see the world clearly. Through our Cataract Patients Free Treatment Campaign, we aim to restore sight, hope, and independence to those in need. Together, let’s bring light back into their lives—one surgery at a time. Because no one should live in the dark."

The project “See The World in A New Way” Providing Free Cataract Surgery Services for Poor Communities is designed to provide free eye cataract surgery with other necessary services (spectacle and primary medicines) to 300 poor individuals who are affected by the cataracts. The project will be implemented in Shahrasti Upazila of Chandpur District in Bangladesh.

Under the country’s constitution, all citizens have a right to health care, with the government aiming to provide universal health care by 2030. Yet many people struggle to access vital eye care services, particularly if they live in rural areas.

While Bangladesh has the second-largest economy in South Asia, there are still high levels of poverty and social inequality. Extreme poverty and a lack of awareness about eye conditions mean that many people in Bangladesh have sight loss that could be treated or prevented.
