Ties up with Netra Kumbh
Sharp Sight Eye Hospitals has collaborated with the Netra Kumbh. The monumental 50-day endeavor aims to transform lives by providing accessible and comprehensive vision care services to pilgrims and visitors attending the sacred Mahakumbh in Prayagraj.
Netra Kumbh is poised to set remarkable milestones in healthcare delivery. Over the 50 days, the camp aims to:
● Conduct 5,00,000 free eye tests to screen for vision problems and eye diseases.
● Deploy an expert team of 500 ophthalmologists to offer specialized diagnostics and consultations.
● Distribute 3,00,000 spectacles to individuals needing refractive corrections.
● Engage 1,000 optometrists to ensure smooth execution of the initiative.
● Perform 50,000 eye surgeries for individuals suffering from severe vision impairments, including cataracts and other critical eye conditions.
Netra Kumbh is not limited to eye care but also aims to raise awareness about the importance of regular eye check-ups and preventive healthcare. The camp will provide facilities, including awareness programs on common eye diseases, such as cataracts, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy, while emphasizing the significance of early detection.
Dr (Col) Sudheer Verma, Senior Consultant, Sharp Sight Eye Hospitals, shared, “Netra Kumbh is not just about restoring sight; it’s about restoring hope and dignity to those who have been silently suffering due to poor vision. This initiative reflects our commitment to making vision care accessible to all and contributing to a brighter future for communities.”
Deepshika Sharma, CEO, Sharp Sight Eye Hospitals said, “The collaboration between Sharp Sight and Netrakumbh in Mahakumbh 2025 is a groundbreaking step towards addressing the eye health needs of millions. Clear vision not only enhances daily living but also empowers individuals to lead productive and fulfilling lives. We are thankful to the organisers of Netrakumbh for giving us an opportunity to be a part of this mega event.”
