retina, oculoplasty, paediatric eye care, neuro ophthalmology, low vision are managed
with the help of experts coming from nearby cities like Surat, Vadodara, Ahmedabad
and Mumbai. Training of paramedics and Ophthalmologists has also started. Some research
activities are also being carried out with the help of one qualified person who
did his M.Sc. in Community Eye Health at London. Twice a week diagnostic eye camps
are being conducted right from the beginning in a radius of 100 kms around us. This
includes 2000 villages and a population of 2.5 million. Patients are provided two
way transportation free of cost. Approx. 100 diagnostic eye camps are being conducted
every year. We are providing eye care services at two CHCs under a public private
partnership initiative with the Govt. of Gujarat. Jhankhvav centre is 25 kms from
here and Netrang is 45 kms from here. One Ophthalmic Assistant posted by us stays
at these CHCs and runs a daily OPD. The Ophthalmologist visits these centres twice
in a week and performs surgeries there. We performed more than 500 operations between
these two centres in the first year of operations which started from April 2012.
Almost 75% of the surgical work is being done free of cost. All the patients with
BPL card are treated free. The other 10-15 % patients make small payments. And out
target population is also the poor community around us.

activity. With the help of 10 workers, we are trying to rehabilitate these blind
clients. Now, the work will start in Umarpada and Mangrol taluks from March 2015.
We have started a hostel for the blind children with 14 students in the first year,
