We are a group of volunteers, professionals working basically in the field of medicine also, in other areas. Our shared aim is to improve the eye health in a poor region of Ethiopia by fighting to erradicate avoidable blindness in twelve woredas (districts) with a beneficiary population of approximately one fourth of the Region of Tigray.
It would be impossible for Proyecto Visión to carry out its Project without the invaluable financial aid provided by members and collaborators , these are a vital part of our organization.
Proyecto Visión provides care by performing cataract surgeries and dealing with other medical eye issues at St.Louise Eye Clinic in Mekelle.
Providing education towards the prevention of eye problems to the population living in remote villages; training and carrying out screenings in schools.
Training : Training local staff in opthalmic nursing (OMA, Opthalmic Medical Assistant) and surgeons for the treatment of trachoma and cataracts (Cataract Surgeons).
With your help, we can eradicate preventable blindness in developing countries, specifically in Ethiopia. You can make a donation with your credit card or PayPal account. Don’t worry, if you can’t become a member, you can still donate. Thank you!
