The Story Behind
Eye Foundation of America

EFA’s mission is to reach the areas where the need is most urgent, particularly in rural and remote regions of developing countries. These are places where access to medical care is either nonexistent or far out of reach due to high costs. By focusing on these underserved communities, EFA strives to provide vital healthcare services to those who would otherwise have no access to the treatment and support they desperately need.

Growing Up With the Gift of Sight.

Without sight, children are hindered not only in every day tasks but their learning is debilitated
as 80% is done visually. Meet the individuals we’ve made an impact on.

Born premature triplets; Prasanth, Sushanth and Nisanth developed Retinopathy Prematurity. An eye disease that can cause bleeding in the eye. If not treated with surgery immediately the children grow up to be blind.

Luckily through GEMROP an initiative funded by EFA to screen premature babies throughout hospitals in India, the triplets were able to receive an expensive surgery free of charge.

The boys are now the age of 4 and excelling in pre-school.

Vida is a nurse from a remote village outside of Ghana. The closest hospital is in the city of Ghana but that is a very far travel for her and her time was dwindling as her vision deteriorated.

Vida was beginning to experience problems from a cornea perforation. She was desperate to receive a cornea transplant so she could better serve her own patients back home.

With worries of losing her sight she had some help from some friends and she was introduced to our collaborator in Ghana, Dr Wanye.

He assured her she needn’t worry. EFA was able to fund her surgery. Today she is overjoyed her vision has returned and she feels blessed she can just read again.

Help fund projects like this one so people like Vida can live life to the fullest potential.

Srinu Maddula was born nearly blind in rural India. Without a double corneal transplant his vision would be compromised at an early age.

Thanks to the medical care he received in 1985 he has gone on to be a successful pharmacist and CEO of a large healthcare organization.

“Because of this surgery my life literally went from darkness to full of hope.”

Srinu is just one of many individuals the Eye Foundation of America has been able to help.
