We at CatarACT International are in the business of developing vision--in people, in professions, in communities. This means fighting cataract and other types of blindness in West Africa by expanding access to care for those who need it most. It means equipping doctors and nurses and technicians with the resources to do their work effectively. It means partnering with towns and villages to help them build healthcare programs and infrastructure. We believe that health care should be locally-run, community-based, and sustainable. These are values that are part of every one of our projects. Our team of students and young professionals from a variety of backgrounds works with local partners in India and Ghana to develop innovative healthcare programs and equip health professionals with the tools and resources they need to serve their patients. Starting with a high-volume, low-cost model for providing cataract surgeries and other eye services pioneered in Southern India, we are working to build sustainable clinics in West Africa. The pilot clinic in Accra is our first step towards creating a network of self-sustaining, interacting eye centres to meet the challenge of blindness in West Africa. We are applying developing world solutions to developing world problems and helping to empower people to change their lives and communities along the way.
