90 thousand eye surgeries done for free in last 5 years.

90 thousand eye surgeries done for free in last 5 years.

How this program started is a story we have related before – so not repeating it here.

Since 18th June 2021, almost every day we have been having 4 to 12 camps. Our Vision team of around 40 persons is stationed in several districts and remain on the move from district to district. The tasks in this work start right from pre-camp propagation, arranging technicians from the hospital to visit the camp sites, mobilising people for camps, arranging transportation for them, arranging their mid-journey meals, accompanying them to the hospital and finally, bringing them safely back to their homes.

By Grace of God, recently we have reached a major milestone of organising 90 thousand surgeries in 8700 camps since the starting of this program in June ’21.

In these camps more than 8 Lacs persons have been examined.

More than 1.06 Lac persons were then sent by us to hospitals for eye surgeries (cataract and retina) free of costs.

The chief collaborator in this program have been the two hospitals of Sri Sadguru Ranchhoddas Seva Sangh Trust (founded by the inspiration and impetus given by the great humanitarian saint Sri Ranchhoddasji Maharaj) with its hospitals located at Chitrakoot (Satna district MP), and Anandpur (Vidisha district, MP).

These camps have been held in interior rural areas of 37 districts of MP and one district each in Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh.

A good number of those who did not require surgery were given spectacles and eye medication.

With eyesight regained these elderly are now self-reliant, not just in terms of attending to their basic needs but also in several cases regained livelihood.
