With our sustainable and collaborative ‘teach a man to fish’ approach, Sight For All empowers local eye specialists in our partner countries with long term solutions.
We focus on filling the gaps in eye health care through:
· Collaborative research: Identifying and prioritising areas of need for developing countries.
· Infrastructure support: Establishing or upgrading equipment and facilities at training and regional eye centres.
· Sustainable education: Coordinating educational programs in developing countries and providing opportunities where doctors travel to Australia for intensive training fellowships.
· Eye health awareness: Informing communities of the importance of eye health and the ophthalmic services that are available.
