Fond-des-Blanc, Haiti Eye clinic Senior Staff member (ophthalmic agent) Nicolo Fidma, shares his thoughts on the pediatric vision screening program started in April 2021.

Many young adults in their early 20s present blind from high pressure glaucoma, preventable infections and trauma regularly. Just this past Thursday, a 28 year old female who is a single parent to a set of twins presented blind in both eyes from glaucoma. She cried knowing she'll never see her kids growing up.

We aim to solve this problem by early community screening and educational initiatives in 2020.

We have 5 babies blind from cataract at our clinic in Fond-des-Blancs, Haiti. This breaks our heart since they are all treatable but the parents don’t have the money.

Can you please help? Even a small donation or sharing this post with your friends helps. Each surgery is $350 including anesthesia. https://globaleyeproject.org/home.html

NO MORE BLIND BABIES

Today is World Sight Day. It's a day to bring attention to health and wellness of the eyes and vision, and make the international community aware that over 275 MILLION people suffer from visual impairment and preventable blindness, 80% of which can be treated or prevented. Poor vision hinders children from learning in school and individuals from earning a living. It has a negative impact on the individual, families, and communities.

Global Eye Project is privileged to help communities including Fond-des-Blanc, Haiti to improve vision and quality of life. We enjoy serving the global community and bringing quality eye care to all in need.

Dear Friends,

Please support our with your tax-deductible gift in 2016 and restore sight and transform lives. In 2016, Global Eye Project made a significant impact. We restored sight and prevented blindness for thousands in 2016. Many under-privileged people benefited from our effort. Please help us get a good start by making a donation which will help us expand our vision-saving work. Preserving and restoring vision not only transforms that individual but the lives of the loved ones and the entire community. Your support will help us eliminate needless blindness and reach many who otherwise wouldn't have access to this care.

We know that you have many options for your end-of-year giving, and we thank you in advance for choosing Global Eye Project. 100% of your gifts (large or small) will go directly towards making a lasting impact on countless lives by funding our sight saving programs on the ground. You'll be able to claim a tax-deduction in 2016 and we will put your donation to work right away. Begin 2017 knowing you made a difference.
