Himalayan Cataract Project: Curing Blindess


The Himalayan Cataract Project’s (HCP) cures blindness in under-served regions of the world by performing cataract surgeries.  The organization's surgical team empowers local doctors by teaching them how to perform the operation and leaves behind the medical equipment brought in on surgical missions.

Drs. Sanduk Ruit and Geoffrey Tabin are opthamologists whose unfailing passion to give sight to the blind has made possible life-altering cataract surgery for only $20 USD.  The physicians want to see unnecessary blindness eradicated in their own lifetimes.
