World Sight Day Special
Empowering Lives by Enabling Eye Health Services in the Communities
"What sight means to each one of us is telling of how accessible eye health is to us. To me, it means the opportunity to lead an independent and fulfilled life. To another, it could mean the difference between a bright and dim future." - Dr. Rishi Raj Borah, Country Director - India, Orbis

MY VISION CAME TRUE
My biggest happiness is...I have an equally good team who work with me to further community optometry. Thanks to Orbis for this because before that I never had a specific team for this (school screening) activity. There were teams earlier too but most of them kept shifting jobs. But this dedicated (QCV-REACH) team made my vision come true.
