The Project focuses on cases of those who are suffering from blindness as a result of cataracts. The number of people suffering from this easily avoidable affliction has increased dramatically over the past few years as a result of the critical state of the public health system in Argentina.

This Project is looking to help mainly the elderly section of the population who have limited resources and opportunities, in order to improve their quality of life.

To succeed in its aims, the Foundation collaborates with other Institutions who provide the link between patient and Foundation.
We hold a cataract detection day for those with suspected problems: patients are given a thorough ophthalmologic exam and divided into those whose cataract problems could be solved straight away with an operation, and those whose problems needed to be analysed further before being operated on.
In each new stage of the project we try to reach out to a wider range of people, while also trying to double the number of free operations we can provide for those with cataract problems.
