EXTENSIVE REACH

9 states are covered by Sankara’s Outreach Program.  Over the next few years, we plan to build one more community Eye Hospitals in Hyderabad (Telangana). Our Outreach programs include:

Gift of Vision Program –

This involves providing quality eye care to the economically disadvantaged people in rural areas at their doorsteps. Under the Gift of Vision Programme, we reach out to the patients through our network of field workers, doctors and paramedics. Patients identified with vision problems are transported to the base Hospital and provided complete treatment at no cost.

Diabetic Retinopathy Program –

It is a comprehensive program initiated to address and control blindness arising out of Diabetic Retinopathy. The primary objective of this program to establish a comprehensive Diabetic Care network across Sankara Eye Foundation India and to reach out to rural population, screen and treat for Diabetic eye diseases.

Rainbow –  

This programme is targeted to cover Children in the age group of 4 to 15 studying in the elementary schools, middle schools and high Schools. The teacher’s volunteers are trained to do the preliminary vision screening of students. After this, an eye care team from Sankara Eye Hospital screens the school children. Children who need further treatment are transported to the Hospital for a more comprehensive examination. If prescription eye glasses are needed, then they are distributed free of cost. Similarly new-borns are screened for congenital defects under a neonatal screening program, known as Swagatham.

FURTHER PROGRAMS

Nannu Kannu – “Nannu Kannu” is a unique comprehensive programme to reach out to children with visual defects in the state of Karnataka. The project was first implemented in partnership with Sightsavers International, Government of Karnataka and National Association for the Blind would reach out to 1,50,000 children in the first phase of the programme.

Maithri – A comprehensive Community Vision Rehabilitation Program for people with Visual Impairment to maximize their Functional, Social, Psychological, Economical independence and to improve the quality of life allowing visually challenged individuals to live an independent productive life.

Eye Banks – Corneal blindness is the fourth leading cause of blindness in the world. Corneal transplant is one of the primary treatment available for corneal blindness where damaged tissue is replaced with healthy donor eye tissue. Sankara Eye Hospital ventured into eye banking in the year 1985. Since then, it has opened 7 eye banks across various locations in India. Sankara has been actively engaged in eye donation awareness and cornea retrieval activities. The Eye Bank receives a pair of an eye almost every day and has collected over 19,262 eyes across all eye bank locations which are used for therapeutic and curative corneal transplant surgeries apart from research purpose. SEF, India also provides donor cornea to other eye banks for emergency transplants.

Sankara Academy of Vision – The Capacity building arm of SEFI has been involved in human resources development. Starting from Post-Graduation in Ophthalmology (DNB), University recognized Fellowship programs in various subspecialties of Ophthalmology, Under-graduation and Post-Graduation in Optometry, Vision Care Technician course for 10+2 pass female students, Post-Graduate Diploma in Hospital Management and various hospital management and soft skill development programs come under the purview of SAV. Today, SAV offers research opportunities for Ophthalmology educators, practitioners, and fellow students.

Milestone Clinic – Milestone Clinic is a specialised program designed for children who have learning disabilities or development delays like (ie. Dyslexia, Autistic Spectrum Disorder) that stops their ability to stay focused while they learn. These children are normally monitored by a development optometrist and receive multiple visual perceptual assessments.
