INVESTING
IN PEOPLE
We know that teaching the teachers first is the best
way to create sustainable change. That’s why we’re
empowering local people to identify, refer and treat
eye disease in more than 25 countries around the
world. With the help of our partners, we’ve trained
thousands of surgeons, nurses, community health
workers and teachers.
“You have to impart skills and
technology and help them help
themselves. Leave
the world a better
place.”
