Al Mustafa Dadyal Eye Hospital

Pakistan faces a silent epidemic of preventable blindness and visual impairment that has reached crisis levels.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the prevalence of blindness in the country is 1.1%, with cataracts being the leading cause at over 50%, followed by glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy. This translates to over three million people suffering from cataract-related blindness alone.

Unfortunately, Pakistan severely lacks adequate eye care facilities and professionals to address this issue. There are only 2.5 ophthalmologists for everyone million people, leaving much of the population without access to treatment.

The situation is even more dire in rural areas such as Dadyal in District Mirpur where quality eye care services are virtually non-existent. This is why we have decided to extend our free eye hospital network in Pakistan and construct a new state-of-the-art eye hospital in Dadyal which will make international-standard eye care accessible to the most disadvantaged communities in and around the Mirpur district.
