Donate nowFor millions of people living in rural and underserved regions, quality eye care remains out of reach. Long travel distances, limited awareness, and the cost of treatment often prevent individuals from seeking timely vision care. At Care Netram, our Community Eye Camps are designed to bridge this gap by bringing comprehensive eye care services directly to the communities that need them most.
Every contribution powers a different layer of community eye care - from awareness to spectacles to surgery referrals.
Your donations help us mobilise communities through partnerships with local leaders, schools, panchayats, and factories. We raise awareness through outreach activities, posters, and announcements, ensuring that people don't have to travel far or lose a day's wages for care.
Funds also cover the practical aspects of screening days, from transport for our medical teams to setting up temporary registration and examination areas. Trained optometrists and vision technicians offer free consultations and eye exams at each camp.
During each camp, we identify individuals with refractive errors (e.g., myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism) and provide them with affordable, high-quality spectacles through GoodVision's modular system. Your support helps fund the entire process from screening and identification to assembling and dispensing glasses, often within days.
This ensures that children can see clearly in class, adults can work safely, and elders can maintain their independence.
For those with conditions like cataracts, our camps go beyond just identifying issues - we coordinate referrals to partner hospitals for treatment and surgery. From arranging appointments to providing transport and financial assistance, we ensure that patients don't face unnecessary barriers to care.
Your donations help cover these logistical costs, ensuring that patients get the care they need, often at subsidised or no cost.
To ensure transparency and demonstrate impact, we track key metrics at every camp.

Care Netram works to make affordable, accessible and quality eye care available to underserved communities. We conduct community and school eye-screening programmes, provide affordable spectacles, identify and refer people requiring further eye care, and develop sustainable vision-care models such as Vision Centres and Vision Entrepreneur/NetraSathi models.
Our approach combines eye health, technology, local entrepreneurship and livelihood creation to build sustainable access to vision care.
Our programmes primarily benefit low-income and underserved communities, including people living in rural and semi-urban areas, tribal communities, schoolchildren, workers and other groups who may have limited access to affordable eye care.
We focus particularly on people who face geographical, economic or social barriers to accessing vision services.
We track both reach and impact across our programmes. Key indicators include:
Digital systems are increasingly used to capture patient and programme data, monitor performance and support transparent reporting to partners and donors.
