On July 4th, Vision Care launched the first "Let's Make a
Brighter Africa" Vision Route Project spanning 9 countries
throughout Southeast Africa in order to better understand, as
well as bring attention to, the inadequate ophthalmic
infrastructure in this region. Led by a team of dedicated
Vision Care doctors, we will also conduct sight-restoring
surgical eye camps in 6 of these countries, namely in Swaziland,
Zimbabwe, Zambia, Tanzania, Kenya, and Uganda.
Through this intensive 2 month project, we also aim to strengthen
the capacity of local hospitals and cooperative networks in order
to achieve a more fully sustainable eye health environment in
Africa.
Just $120 ($10 a month) will help one adult or child to receive
the life transforming cataract surgery needed to see again.
