Operation Restore Sight
Our hope is to substantially improve the lives of individuals who are visually impaired or going blind, especially those without access to quality eye care who have nowhere else to turn.
“The dream of Operation Restore Sight is to provide state-of-the-art eye care and ophthalmic training worldwide at no cost to the patient or host country.”
