Spreading the Light with Gift of Sight.

The World Memon Organisation Pakistan Chapter is spreading the light with the invaluable gift of sight.

Healthy corneas are being delivered to the visually impaired in Pakistan, courtesy WMO Far East Chapter.

In a majority of the cases, the sight lost due to an opaque cornea (the outermost, transparent layer of the eye) can be restored by replacing it with a clear one. This remarkable endeavour that WMO has embarked upon will bridge the gap between availability and requirement of healthy corneas.

The World Memon Organisation has partnered with the Hashmanis Foundation, Ibrahim Hospitals and the Sri Lankan Eye Bank Society to provide free Corneal Transplant services to the people of Pakistan. Alhamdulillah 135 successful surgeries have been performed thus far by the Grace of the Almighty, allowing recipients to step out of the darkness and lead a normal life.

As WMO continues it’s journey of touching and changing lives of thousands across the globe, the GIFT OF SIGHT project marks a significant milestone in that all important journey to change the World.
