As the eighth most populated country in the world, Bangladesh faces daunting challenges in delivering quality eye care to the more than 160 million people who live there.
Since the first time we touched down in Bangladesh with our Flying Eye Hospital in 1985, we’ve made tremendous progress improving access to quality eye care. In 2023 alone, we examined the eyes of more than 327,000 people, treated over 22,000 people, and trained nearly 700 eye care professionals. But the work is nowhere near enough—which is why we’re turning to you.
We’re making our final onboard preparations for the Flying Eye Hospital’s next sight-saving project in Bangladesh, but we need your help to ensure we have the resources to deliver critical training to local eye teams and save the sight of those living with vision loss.
By making a gift today, you will help make a life-changing impact immediately. Your contribution makes it possible to help rural and underserved populations by providing our partners with the tools, training, and technology to deliver quality eye care services.
Together we can help children build a brighter future and provide vital relief to the adults and children living in Bangladesh.
