Training and Development

Building local capacity for sustainable eye care.

Training Future Eye Care Experts

We believe sustainable eye care begins with local expertise. That’s why we operate four specialized colleges across Sudan, Niger, and Pakistan, training the ophthalmologists, technicians, and nurses who will transform eye care in their communities.

By the numbers (2023):

These aren’t just students—they’re future leaders who will provide life-changing care for generations to come.

Our Impact

From humble beginnings in Hyderabad, Pakistan, in November 1989, with our first “Mobile Eye Treatment Camp,” which we used to call “Blindness Eradication Program” at that time, we’ve come a long way. That initial camp saw us screen 1,563 patients, perform 267 surgeries, and distribute 400 glasses. Since then, we’ve grown significantly in scale, expertise, surgical techniques, logistical planning, and cost-effectiveness.
