About Operation Eyesight Universal

 Every five seconds, one person in the world goes blind. A child goes blind every minute. Yet for almost three out of four of these people, blindness was completely preventable.

Operation Eyesight Universal is an international development organization dedicated to eliminating avoidable blindness. Since our work began in 1963, we have brought sight-saving treatment to more than 35 million people. Today our work is focused on India and the African countries of Ghana, Kenya, Rwanda and Zambia – places where blindness can be deadly, especially to those who are very young, old or poor.

Through Operation Eyesight, people are helped regardless of means, gender, caste or creed. We work in partnership with medical professionals and community development teams, building essential resources that give all people, including the poorest, access to the help they need. Our focus on high-quality, comprehensive eye care ensures sustainable service for entire communities, with long-lasting results. Thanks to private donations and public support, Operation Eyesight is able to assist people threatened by blindness and low vision.
