Aim & Object

Helping People Escape Preventable Blindness

As a voluntary and generous organization, the objective of the Association is giving light to blind people, treating underprivileged eye patients and organizing eye camps at different locations of Sylhet and outside.

Many poor patients cannot receive timely treatment because of poverty and lack of access. The Association took the initiative to help these patients so they do not have to spend life in avoidable darkness.
